Indiana Sheltie Rescue

  Indiana Sheltie Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation consisting of a small group of volunteers who have come together to help homeless shelties. We are always looking for additional volunteers, and capable and loving foster homes to offer a temporary safe haven to Shetland Sheepdogs. Our shelties make their way into our program as owner surrenders, shelter dogs, or are found as strays by caring individuals. For more information about our organization, please look here.

Fiona is a sweet little lady who deserves to live out her remaining years in the best health that we can offer her. If you are a sheltie lover, here is your chance to give back. We would welcome any donations to help cover Fiona’s medical expenses, which have exceeded $1500. Click here to learn more about Fiona or to donate.


How Could You by Jim Willis presents, in a very poignant way, why our involvement in Sheltie Rescue is so important.

How Could You

Copyright © Jim Willis 2001, all rights reserved

When I was a puppy I entertained you with my antics and made you laugh. You called me your child and despite a number of chewed shoes and a couple of murdered throw pillows, I became your best friend. Whenever I was "bad," you'd shake your finger at me and ask "How could you?" - but then you'd relent and roll me over for a bellyrub.

My housetraining took a little longer than expected, because you were terribly busy, but we worked on that together. I remember those nights of nuzzling you in bed, listening to your confidences and secret dreams, and I believed that life could not be any more perfect. We went for long walks and runs in the park, car rides, stops for ice cream (I only got the cone because "ice cream is bad for dogs," you said), and I took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day.

FOSTER HOMES NEEDED

HELP!! We have such wonderful shelties in our program that many have been adopted by our own foster homes! Indeed this is great news but because of this, most homes cannot foster any more. As a result we are in dire need of new foster homes. If you can help, click here for additional information on how to get started.

 




If you witness or suspect that dog fighting or animal abuse of any nature is going on near you, PLEASE call the Central Indiana Canine Crime Stoppers hotline at 317-262-TIPS. You can make the call anonymously and, if there is a felony arrest, you may receive up to a $1,000 reward.
