O Canada Redux!

Banff, 8 year old Light Wheaten Female

Kootenay, 8 year old Red Wheaten Female

They say good things come to those that wait...  Some wait by choice, but others have to wait out of necessity, because they have to.  Remember back to the beginning of November when CP welcomed a group of Cairns known as the O'Canada group?  Well, there were two females missing from that group, not by choice, but out of necessity and because they had to. 

Why you ask?  Because they had both just whelped a litter of puppies and they had to be good mamas to their babies.  Now those babies have been weaned and have found their own homes, and these two girls were not forgotten by CP.  By keeping in touch, we were able to arrange for them both to find their way to the loving arms of the CP family this weekend, and they have now found the good things in life!

The members of the O'Canada group were named after cities in Canada as part of the Name a Cairn Program thanks to a generous donation by our BC Canadian Volunteers, the proceeds from their labor, parking cars at a multi-day dog show event.  These two girls will remain connected to the others and are named after two Canadian National Parks.

#4359 Banff:  Female, Light Wheaten, DOB 12/20/04

Please help us welcome Banff and Kootenay to the CP family!

The heart and soul of Col. Potter Cairn Rescue is our volunteers, our family that pitches in to do whatever it takes to help the Cairns in need.  Last weekend was a remarkable display of that family in action!

Thanks to some very dedicated and devoted family members, SEVEN Cairns are now enjoying freedom and everything that being wrapped in the loving arms of Col. Potter holds!  I have to extend VERY SPECIAL THANKS to Jane R., Doc S., Pam M., and Kathy H. for giving up a big part of their weekend to make this possible!

But the family help started several months ago!  A group of our Canadian family held a fundraising event parking cars to benefit Col. Potter.  They raised a tremendous amount of money for the furkids and this group of furkids is named from that donation.
