URGENT: NEED FHs in OH for 3 Mill Cairns
Hi Everyone:
Cairn Rescue USA has been offered 3 female cairn terriers from an OH mill but we have absolutely no place to put them, as all our foster homes seem to be full. If we do not take them, they are likely to end up in next weekend's Buckeye Auction and make more money for the miller. All are females, 2 are sisters, born 5/12/05 so they are 1-1/2 years old and are black brindle. The third one is almost 2 years old, light brindle, born 12/19/04.
We will take them but only if we can find foster homes. Please let us know if you can foster them or know of someone who can. Best contact is Shell Lewis, our VP of Foster Homes, at bluegal53@aol.com or send an email to info@cairnrescueusa.com and one of us will see it. Please cross-post and forward to whomever you think can help.
Thanks! Violetta for Cairn Rescue USA

Have you made contact with Col. Potter to see if they can take? I remember when the shoe was on the other foot and Col. P. was told to "share" the load with other rescues. I have no idea of the status of Col. P. foster homes but just had to mentioned! Thanks, Darlene and Jolly, FL

Re: URGENT: NEED FHs in OH for 3 Mill Cairns
Well, I read a post from Valerie saying that they had been forced to leave a large number of Missouri dogs behind at some auction because they did not have the foster homes to take them or the money to vet them. Maybe after the raffle they now have the money, since it did raise over $20K but right now what we need to take these 3 dogs are the foster homes.
Has that changed? I have not seen a post from Valerie saying that it had. Maybe you saw it and I missed it? I always have a hard time keeping up with CRM as it is a very busy list. Violetta

Re: URGENT: NEED FHs in OH for 3 Mill Cairns
Foster Home status changes all the time... I do know we had several dogs go to their forever homes this weekend. Not being intakes, I'm not exactly sure of the specific status - thats why the Intakes group should be contacted at CairnTerrierRescue@yahoogroups.com - they can let you know if we could be of help.
Yes, the NLOL fundraiser was the most successful yet.. it was over $20k... that surely does help.. We do think its prudent to be sure to have some money ready for unexpected expenses, especially considering the number of dogs in foster care.

Re: URGENT: NEED FHs in OH for 3 Mill Cairns
Hey Corinne. Out of curiosity and since you sort of mention it, how many dogs does CPCRN have now in foster care? We have 90 which is waaaayyyy more than we ever expected to have when we started the year and is about 2X the number we had last year at any one time. Seems to be raining Cairns all the time.

Re: URGENT: NEED FHs in OH for 3 Mill Cairns
Sorry off hand I dont know the specific number.. I've been immersed in the NLOL. I know its quite a lot. and yes, its raining cairns.
and they crop up in the most surprising ways.. We got one cairn Ida... who ended up having Georgie Porgie during her vet stay.. no one had even realized she was pregnant - she certainly didnt look it - or we probably couldnt have gotten her.
