Liotta was picked up on the street by a shelter. Because he looked like a Westie or Cairn, the shelter called Col. Potter with whom they had a good relationship. But, with his rangy build, long legs, and his non-Cairn weight of twenty-three pounds, Col. Potter feels he has no Cairn in him. Nevertheless, the Cairn rescue took him in, and he went to Lynne, an experienced foster parent.
Rossi, a little terrier mix, came to Col. Potter Cairn Rescue along with his buddy, Martini, also a mix. Both lived in a loving home with an older couple who had adopted them from a local rescue. Sadly, when the couple died, there was no one to take the two dogs.
Martini is a Cairn mix that came into Col. Potter because his elderly owners died. They had originally adopted him from a local rescue and, over the years, provided him with a loving home. Martini at about twenty-five pounds is larger than the Cairn standard and has longer legs. He is about five years old.
Captain Jack is an older Westie, but this fifteen-year-old has a lot of life left. He is a happy boy whose smile and wagging tail light up a room. When he came to Caryl to be fostered, he adapted immediately. He walked right in with his tail wagging, and that well-known Westie smile on his adorable face. The captain came from a military family, and when a new baby with special needs was expected, they decided they couldn’t handle him anymore. Caryl suspects they didn’t want to be bothered and didn’t want to spend the money on him.
Kerri, a little Cairn girl, is currently in a Col. Potter foster home. Caryl, her foster mom, says she is a sweet girl that just wants to be near her person. She loves to curl up on a lap, and she sleeps on the bed with Carly. Carly calls her my little Klingon.
Jamison and Jaybee are two miniature Schnauzers looking for their forever home. They are very bonded so must be placed together. In fact, Dalton, their foster dad, says he has never seen two dogs more attached, and he has fostered a lot of dogs for Col. Potter Cairn Terrier Rescue.
Jonas is sweet, young boy who is currently in foster care with Col. Potter Cairn Rescue looking for his forever home. Jonas is a petite twelve pounds and is, according to the vet, about two years old. His owner surrendered him after the death of her husband because she was no longer able to care for him.
Robbie is a terrier mix who was picked up on the mean streets and sent to a shelter. Fortunately for Robbie, the shelter contacted Col. Potter Cairn Rescue, and he is now safely in a loving CP foster home.
Hines is part of Col. Potter’s Mix-It-Up adoption group. Cheryl, one of his foster parents, thinks he is part terrier and part Chihuahua. She doesn’t know much about his background because he was found as a stray. However, she feels he may have had a family at one time but was not well treated.
SoBear Blackie is a Shih Tzu mix. When his parents, who were volunteers with Col. Potter Cairn Rescue, both died, SoBear came back to the caring arms of Col. Potter.
