What does it cost to rescue a Welsh Terrier?
|
|
WTCARES suggests a $250 adoption donation from each new owner. However, in the case of an elderly or special needs Welsh Terrier, some, or all of this amount, may be waived at the discretion of the program chairperson. Standard expenses, such as boarding, shelter fees, inoculations, normal veterinary care, cost of spaying/neutering, and WTCARES volunteer's expenses will be applied against this donation. Voluntary expenses, such as air transportation or delivery to new owner by WTCARES volunteer, will be in addition to this amount. If standard expenses exceed $250, and the dog is young and healthy, the new owners may be asked to contribute more. Anything donated in addition to the suggested adoption donation will go a long way toward helping to defray the many expenses incurred in keeping our program successful. Although volunteers contribute their time and some of the expenses in rescue and placement, all of the major costs of the WTCARES program must be offset by donations if we are to continue our work for Welsh. |
