Westie Rescue of Western Pennsylvania

Westie Rescue of Western Pennsylvania [email protected] We primarily cover western Pennsylvania and western New York. The Westie Rescue operates totally on donations from the public.

The Westie Rescue of Western PA organization is dedicated to assisting West Highland White Terriers needing rescue from neglect or abuse or with assistance in finding new homes. We also partner with Westie Rescue groups in neighboring states and support or participate in rescue efforts elsewhere in the United States. We are proud to say that the Westie Rescue is an ALL volunteer, NOT-FOR-PROFIT re

scue mission! Our volunteers have been involved in rescue for 10 plus years and during that time they have taken in and placed dozens of Westies, very successfully. There is no full-time staff. Volunteers receive no compensation except for receipts of out of pocket expenses directly related to the rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption of Westies in the program. Each year, we place many Westies into loving homes. Some are in excellent health but some are far from it. Although most are around 5 years old, the ages of the dogs range from 18 months to 11 years.

Small dogs, enormous personalities, and hearts that somehow take up the whole house 🤍🐾

Today we’re celebrating National Westie Day—the little white shadows who follow us from room to room, make every bad day better, and somehow convince us they run the show (because… they do). From zoomies to snuggles, muddy paws to perfectly posed photos, life just hits different with a Westie by your side.

They’re not just pets—they’re family, best friends, and tiny emotional support CEOs.

Drop a pic of your Westie below so we can all admire the fluff, the sass, and the undeniable star power ✨🐶
