Rescue

As members of the Central Virginia Shetland Sheepdog Club (CVSSC) and the American Shetland Sheepdog Association (ASSA) we are committed to the rescue of purebred Shetland Sheepdogs in need. We believe that if all breeders helped provide placement networking for their breed to their local animal shelters, the overcrowding problems would be reduced substantially, leaving more time and resources to educate the general public concerning mixed breed responsibilities. When we have purebred Shelties for adoption we will post them on this page. If you are interested in an animal posted for adoption, or wish to get on a waiting list for a Rescue Sheltie, please contact us by e-mail.

For those intereseted in a Sheltie rescue adoption please contact The Northern Virginia Sheltie Rescue by e-mail at e-jchristensen@worldnet.att.net or ewymer@shentel.net directly.

For those interested in a non-Sheltie rescue adoption please contact our wonderful local 'no kill' shelter Caring for Creatures. This shelter is overflowing with loving cats and dogs in need of safe, caring homes.


Heart O' Gold Nugget  - Did you know? 80 percent of the dogs and 90 percent of the cats hit by automobiles each year are unaltered males. If you love your pet, call your veterinarian today and make an appointment to have him neutered.
