Surrendering a cherished pet is never easy, but Oklahoma Westie understands the complexities. When you submit a surrender application, our team carefully reviews the circumstances surrounding the dog. We'll contact you and let you know if we can take your dog. Thank you for considering us as a safe place to surrender your pet.
Surrendering your pet to Oklahoma Westie Rescue is a permanent decision.
Oklahoma Westie Rescue knows that surrendering your dog is a very difficult decision, but sometimes - it is the only one to make. If you choose to surrender your dog, you'll be asked to complete a surrender contract. Your signature on this contract represents a permanent decision on your part. This legally binding contract gives full ownership of the dog to Oklahoma Westie Rescue. This allows us to provide veterinary care and down the road, legally adopt out the dog to a carefully pre-screened 'forever' home. Please note: We consider adoptions through our organization to be closed, meaning that we do not reveal the identities of either the surrendering or adopting parties. This ensures your privacy, as well as the privacy of the adopter, will be protected.
