CAIRN RESCUE USA

Cairn Rescue USA, founded in November 2002, is an all-volunteer, not-for-profit organization which rescues purebred Cairn Terrier dogs and Cairn Terrier mixes nationwide that are homeless or soon-to-be-homeless, rehabilitates them in the private homes of its volunteers, procures them food and necessary veterinary care, and finds and screens loving forever homes to adopt them. CRUSA rescues its Cairns from animal shelters and similar facilities, as well as from puppymills and backyard breeders which often dispose of their old breeding stock at auctions. CRUSA also takes into its rescue program Cairns which need rehoming because they are being surrendered by their current owners for any number of reasons, ranging from death or terminal illness of the Cairn's owner, divorce, relocation, economic hardship, behavioral issues or illness of the Cairn, neglect, etc. Most of CRUSA's operations are conducted over the internet. We do not have a shelter or facility but depend instead on a wonderful network of foster homes throughout the United States who under our officers' guidance evaluate and rehabilitate our rescue Cairns until they are ready for placement. We are committed to rescuing as many Cairns as our funding and number of foster homes and volunteers will permit.
