CTC requires Cairn Terrier Relief Fund Trustee (Registered Charity No
803599) http://www.cairn-rescue.co.uk Are you interested in becoming a Trustee for the
CTRF? If so, and you are a member of
the Midland please contact Linda Firth and register your interest. I will then notify the Secretary of the
CTRF, Chris Roberts who will supply you with the relevant information. Chris writes "Maybe you don’t want to commit yourself to being a
Trustee, if so there are other ways of helping out………… Many Cairns that we take in have either suffered or are
not used to the care and affection that they deserve, but many have come from
very loving homes and have been someone’s beloved pet. For the dogs who have not had the best
start in life living with a foster family helps to provide them with one-to-one care, allowing them to
build up their confidence and get used to a normal lifestyle until we can
find the right ‘forever home’ for them. Other dogs don't cope well in kennels. This is where we
need people to take them in to provide them with a real home, even if it is
only on a temporary basis. Fostering animals can also be a pleasurable experience.
It’s rewarding to know that you played a part in the re-homing process
especially when a foster Cairn is taken to its ‘forever home’. It also gives people an alternative, as not everyone is
able to take on a dog long term. Not only do we need ‘foster homes’, but we also require
volunteers to help with transporting dogs, mainly from their former homes to
a foster home or other place of safety, or we may need someone to carry out a
‘home visit’ prior to one of our Cairns going to their forever home." You can find further information about becoming a
