WROC’s Forever Fosters
At WROC, our Forever Fosters program provides hospice care and love for senior dogs with life-threatening conditions or those typically 15 or older with little chance of being adopted, or those who can’t be adopted due to medical needs or terminal illness. Your sponsorship funds their food and care, sustaining our mission to protect unadoptable Westies. We’re driven by kindness, not accolades, ensuring all dogs feel loved. With rising pet abandonment, we need foster homes and sponsors to care for every Westie in need.
Your one time or monthly donation will help us take care of our seniors and medically challenged dogs. If you care, please share!
Petunia
Petunia, 9 years old…This sweet little lady was relinquished to a shelter because she was sick. She was in pain and would not eat, drink.
-
Our vet was unable to examine her mouth, and her blood work was not good. To our surprise, Petunia had at least 100 foxtails imbedded in her mouth. All were removed as well as 30 teeth. This little lady is a survivor and we are so thankful she is with WROC. Petunia is now a WROC Forever Foster & will be staying with Diana. She will be well cared for by WROC for the rest of her life. She is happy and thankful for her forever home.
Maggie
Maggie, 13 years old…This sweet lady lost her human and her home. She was living in an assisted living facility, her health was deteriorating,
-
No one stepped in, so the family contacted us. Maggie is 12 years old, underweight at 14 pounds, and we are treating for her yeast, fungal and bacterial infections. Her ears are infected as well and she has a 4/6 heart murmur. Maggie is now a forever foster and is living with Wendy. Wendy’s affection and dedication to seniors and special needs Westies are a blessing and a true reflection of her exceptional character. Wendy's devotion to WROC’s Maverick, Claus, and Peetz & her commitment to their care made this an easy decision to send Maggie home with Wendy.
Tinkerbelle
Tinkerbelle, 9 years old…What a difference 9 months can make. Tink had her follow up appointment with the dermatologist specialist.
-
Though she looks beautiful, we are still battling yeast. We will continue with her medicated baths 3-4 times a week, special diet, change up her medications and retest in a month.
Tink will need lifelong skin maintenance, as she can go backwards fast if we don’t stay on top of it. She has come a long way and will be staying with WROC as a Forever Foster.
Jack Beanstalk
Jack, 15 years old…Jack’s only requirement is a lap to snuggle on. He loves gentle face massages and sweet kisses and LOVES to be groomed.
-
He is in great health and has so much love to give. He is blind, yet moves around great with a spring in his step. He was found wandering the busy streets of LA all alone. His mouth was riddled with foxtails so most of his teeth were extracted. Jack is the sweetest, most gentle little man ever. He has excellent hearing & his sense of smell is even better. He loves going for walks & stops to smell the flowers. For all of these reasons, WROC welcomes Jack as a Forever Foster.
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord for a home to keep
If a family is found before I wake
I hope they see I am a keepsake
My bones may ache and my ears don’t hear
But I’m not scared, I have no fear
Angels watch me through the night
And wake me with the morning light
As I wait for a new home to be found
I am loved, cared for, safe and sound
