When a dog comes into the STCGNY rescue program, several steps must be performed before the dog is made available to go to a new home.<\/p>\n

The dogs are washed and groomed so they will look their best! Their diet is evaluated and improved if necessary. They see our veterinarians and are examined to evaluate their health. They are brought up to date on vaccines. Tests are performed to make sure they are free of parasites, heartworm and Lyme disease. Further testing and treatment is provided if necessary or indicated. Before placement, each dog is spayed or neutered if age and health permit. Each dog\u2019s temperament and needs are evaluated in order to make the best choice we can for both the dog and the future adopter.<\/p>\n

Like most rescue organizations, we require a home visit, in addition to vet and personal reference checks to ensure our rescues are happy and comfortable for the remainder of their lives.<\/p>\n

\nWe work hard to make the perfect and forever match for what each individual Scottie needs with one of our prescreened applicants.<\/p>\n
