I currently have 2 westies up for adoption. A male and a female.The previous owner has given them up due to his busy schedule. They are a very loving pair and also a very active and attention seeking. Below are the term and conditions I am setting for their adoption:-

Both of them must stay together and should not be separated as they are very attached to each other.
As they are white and have medium length hair, new owner must be prepared to groom and bath them regularly, preferably hand stripped.
New owner must allow house visits from me to check on their well-being regularly.
Both of them must be indoor dogs.
Owner has to send them for basic obedience training and also house train them as they are not currently house trained.
Prefers owner who is willing to feed raw food if not high quality kibbles.
New owner must bear cost of neutering, vaccination and other medical bills that they have occured during their stay with me.

Interested parties can contact me at . I would appreciate at least an introduction of yourself and would also like to know more on your past experience in handling dogs.

Hi acsyen,

I think Dr Xandro should be disqualified against adopting Mini & Troy. He was the one who said he's gonna migrate in July & now is already July. I thought he's supposed to sell Autumn & also her offsprings? How can he probably adopt your 2 dogs when he's gonna migrate? He's also selling his dogs at very high prices too, probably making money out of it.

Anyway I do agree with him on not to spay your Westies. Think of yourself being spayed. Hehe! It's up to the potential adopter to take care of that but if the potential adopter takes them & breed them to sell at such high prices like Dr Xandro, better not lah. Dr Xandro says his dogs are like best of breed e.g. Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie.

Anyway since you're already with the Westies for long enough, just take them to be like your own pets. If already >3 months, you sure must have some emotional attachment to them already by now.

Thanks for your suggestions andy. They are already spayed le. I spay all the dogs that comes into my hands. Dogs and humans are not the same but I do not feel that i should be 'breeding' myself also. Too many unwanted children n pets in the world. Dogs can't think like us so we have to spay them.

Anyway I already have 4 dogs of my own and I do love them but I don't feel any attachment to them. i rehome many dogs and some has been with me for more than a year. So they will have to be rehomed when the right person comes along.

Sometimes, we got to understand that, there are people who really want to have a dog, but they not afford to pay much to get it but that doesn't mean they can't take care of them. There are also reason why they can't get a big dog as they maybe stays in flat or apartment. When they got a pet, they will know automatically how much they needs to fork out to keep the pets. What so if they are rich enough to buy 2-3k dogs? End up also either abandon them or send them to SPCA. I just went and visit SPCA Penang and saw white breed pekingese with her puppies, the lady told me, the owner abandon the whole family. So what if you are rich to BUY them? There's lot of people who not enough to eat willing to feed the dogs rather than themself. Yes, to have a pet needs to do lots of calculation, I didn't even expect I got my shih tzu, who the breeder negelected, within 4 month I spent few thousands on his medication due to he's sick since the day I got him, don't need to calculate the normal jabs and all. And am I rich? I wish! But there's a responsibility to bare, as I think, I don't eat, my dog got to eat. He's sick, I can't be sick.

Let other people to fork out what they can afford to adopt a dog, sometimes people says, money is not an issue, then why charge so much? Doesn't it better that the extra charges to let the new adopter give to the dog instead? Of course minimal charges needs to be charge, but not over charge.

One thing is true... If you don't think you can commit don't even think to get one pet, head over and do volunteer work at the compound, you gets to play with them as well.

Think. Can you take out RM150/month just for basic check up and food? Haven't include with accessories and *touch wood* other sickness treatments.

No offense, just my point of view... I'm still bengang over the pekingese in SPCA with 2 puppies... and a pug... Ahhhh.....!!!!

These are dogs not humans.. Are you saying that you go around mating without any protection like them and sow your seeds with many different partners?

RM800 for two purebred dogs that have been spayed/neutered and are up to date on their vaccs/deworming isn't too much to ask at all. Not saying to simply charge an adoption fee for purebred dogs because they're somehow superior to mixed breeds (they're not!) but this is what I would personally do to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands (dishonest people adopting for free then reselling the dogs/use them as breeding machines/stingy people who only want a free pedigree then aren't willing to spend money on the dog to make sure it's properly cared for). Vaccs cost anywhere from RM30-90 depending on which type you get and the surgical fee of spaying/neutering costs anywhere from RM120-300 depending on where you do it. Throw in the cost of food, heartworm prevention etc. and do the math - how is RM400 per dog too much? I have to agree with noob - if you're not willing to pay the adoption fee which doesn't even cover the real cost of caring for these dogs then please don't get a pet lest it suffers when you're not willing to spend money on proper food/healthcare after adopting it.

stelleonard I hope you don't mean none of your dogs are vaccinated from your rhetorical question of why dogs need a vet. Your dogs won't stay healthy with "lots of care and love" alone, they NEED vaccinations/deworming or they won't be able to fight off diseases that can kill them if they are ever unlucky enough to get infected! If you really love your dogs please educate yourself on responsible healthcare and take your dogs to the vet for the basic shots they need.

This 2 dogs still up for adoption haaahhh....!??!?

I agree with Stelleonard,
dogs always being dogs the way they are, it was people try to change into business industrial, I have dogs in past can make life span between 9-12 yrs. If your environment clean why you want to poison your dog every month for deworm and every year for vaccine ? They need it at first 6 weeks and follow on yes... Like human lah... No need regular vaccine after adult, heart worm, deworm etc. Its how your option to raise them.

How you feed, how you spend time and walk them.. All this trendy of regular to vet was all nonsense with all this chemical to poison your dogs as not necessery if your dogs not sick.
I keep my dogs very fit because consume time for walk and running with them, they happy if you provide they nature but regulation for ticks yes necessery.
Making rm400 adoption fee it's up to owner but good luck for 4-5 yrs old dogs ? People spending money to buy dogs because they have an option to choose what they want, that's the money for.
Puppies more expensive as pure breed coz as an option you like to be first for dog to recognize you.
This 2 dogs what so ever pure breed, cute, tame easy to handle... What ever it is suite anyone ?
For me, sure owner have experience with these dogs that will easy to see who will be suitable and deserve to adopt.
I love keeping dogs because the function of dogs suite my life, it doesn't matter ho much it cost, even it's for free but how much it cost me is the commitment why I keep them.

Dogs it's not a trophy, not trendy, can be fashion if you do it right. Even my dog more happy eating my left over dinner, not bcoz fancy of expensive dog food, as long my dog happy, healthy and everything suite my dogs coz thatthe way I want as an optionfor me.
My tip to owner, if you really love your dogs, just try to give them away to your close friends lah....
Sometime the way you want didn't suite the way people want to pay for, so make wise decision.

Cheers and good luck for Mini and Troy.

I wish the owners can think like how you do. Unfortunately the owner can't be bothered at all. Am sure he would even dump them on the streets that is why they are taken in by me. Many who wants to adopt them wants perfect dogs but in reality no dogs are perfect. Even pups develop certain behavior issues. One day the right person will come along for them.

SSPHOON   May 26th 2010 at 2:14AM
of course RM800 is not agreeable...u are now like selling them away but at 50% discount. With a heart it should be free or min charge RM50 OR RM100 just to compensate some expenses, which the rest comes from your charity.

ManekiNeko   May 26th 2010 at 8:13AM
Ssphoon, I disagree. Look at the numbers of dogs Siew Yen rescues and fosters. She pays for medical care and neutering, and feeds them all premium food until she can re-home. I'm sure that RM800 for these 2 dogs doesn't come close to the money she has spent on their behalf. If she simply did all this rescue work for no compensation, she would be able to rescue many fewer animals.

If you find the adoption fee disagreeable, then don't adopt these dogs. But please don't criticise someone who rescues, shelters and re-homes dozens of homeless dogs and tell her she should be MORE charitable... :-(

If you want a free purebreed dog (doesn't everyone?) you can try the purebreeds that are constantly being advertised in petfinder/mudah/other sites for only RM100! wow! so cheap! (coughsarcasmcough).

Or you can try SPCA or PAWS, but the dog will be thin, dirty, and tangled, so you have to be able to look beyond the grime. And cough out a few hundred adoption fees anyway

Ascyen pls do not listen to detractors like ssphoon. You do an amazing job in fixing other people's mistakes; those that refuse to spay/neuter their pets and contribute to an unwanted population of dogs/cats.

Too many people troll petfinder looking for pedigree dogs that are cheap or free. As melissaK pointed out some are not looking for pets but for a way to make money by reselling or breeding.

You are wise to be charging an adoption fee.
