My name is Bella & Sophie!

Aberdeen Scottish Terrier Rescue is a registered 501(c)3.
Adoption application at www.aberdeenstr.com

***MUST SUBMIT APPLICATION before we will respond to email or phone inquiries. Thanks for your cooperation!***

WE ARE NOT A SHELTER, WE ARE AN ALL-VOLUNTEER RESCUE WITH FULL-TIME JOBS.
Please do not contact us to come look at a dog.
We will contact you once we have reviewed your completed application if we think your home might be a good fit. A reference check, phone interview, and home visit will be completed before meeting an adoptable dog.

We work quickly. Please do not submit an application until you are ready to bring a new furry family member home. Expect your references to be contacted shortly after submitting your application. We adopt out to homes around the US and Canada, but require that you are present for the meet and greet in Renton, WA.

Our adoption fee is non-negotiable as we need these funds to cover medical bills. The adoption fee is due on the day of adoption in the form of a check, Chase QuickPay, PayPal, or cash.

Bella 9 years & 17 lbs, & Sophie who is very protective of her foster mum is 6 years 21 lbs, spayed by laser by our vets, female Scottish Terrier’s bonded pair, must be adopted together. Both now spayed, microchipped, both had dentals & now up to date on shots & dewormed.

The beautiful Bella & Sophie had to be surrendered by their loving family who loved them deeply but they could no longer care for them & wanted nothing but the very best for the girls & asked could we please help them & keep the girls together always. Both girls are now looking for that very special family who will keep them together & be their everything for these 2 lovely ladies. We will not separate the girls.

Bella & Sophie are your typical Scottie ladies, they are very head strong but oh so very sweet & loving. Miss Sophie is very protective of her foster mum & believes she has to protect her from the world. The girls like to do their own thing when sleeping, Bella majority of the time will sleep with her foster mum in bed with her while Sophie is the watch dog to make sure nothing is outside while everyone is sleeping. Miss Bella & Sophie are little hunters, they see a mouse & that mouse had better run. Bella & Sophie would need a new forever home where they could be given time to adjust & then the girls would love their new family. Bella & Sophie ride beautifully in the car & enjoy a good car ride & you tell them let’s go for a ride girls & they get excited. The girls walk great on a harness & leash & enjoy a good walk & love to eat.

Bella & Sophie have been around many breeds of dogs all shapes & sizes & they are currently fostered with other dogs but must be adopted together. We recommend they find home where they are the only 2 in the home. We also recommend a home who has Scottish Terrier experience for the girls.

Bella is a female 9 year old Scottish Terrier roughly 17 lbs, microchipped, up to date on her shots, dewormed, had a dental & polish along with x-rays for her teeth. Sophie is 6 years old, Scottish Terrier & roughly 21 lbs, female, she is spayed by our vets by laser, microchipped, up to date on shots & dewormed & had a dental & polish along with x-rays got her mouth. We have spent far more financially on medical care & needs on Bella & Sophie than their adoption fee covers.

Bella & Sophie have not been around cats since being in the rescue so we do not recommend cats but it’s always up to the new family to be responsible with their animals together & we have not had them around small children so we do not recommend small children & it’s always up to the family to be responsible with their children.

We were not there when Bella & Sophie was conceived so we do not know who their parents were & it’s always up to the new potential family to look at the pictures & decide what they think their breed is.

As with all of our rescues & Bella & Sophie’s friends they will need work on potty training & training, so this should be something the new family would be willing to work on & commit to. Please do not submit an application if you are not willing to commit to one of our rescues care for their whole life & that includes if they need training. Please do not email us asking is Bella & Sophie potty trained or available, nor do we ship dogs anywhere as we will not respond. Our dogs are looking for their right forever homes now.

Please do not contact us asking to adopt one without the other, they will only be adopted together into a loving forever home.

We would never say anyone of our rescues are potty trained. Our rescues need homes where the people are understanding of their past & what they have been through & what they will need in their daily lives & not willing to give up on them & if they do need training in their new home will in fact take them to training & not just say they will when applying.

Please only submit an application if you are truly interested in adopting Bella & Sophie & going through our process and have read their listing fully to the end & are wanting to adopt. If you are not responsive to our calls, emails or your references do not respond we will move on & remove your application from our system. You must be willing to go through our screening process which includes your references being checked, a phone interview & a home visit followed by a meet and greet & if it’s a good fit, up to our discretion. We will only be accepting applications for Bella & Sophie who understands their needs & that meet all the requirements for this special sweet little angels.

Once we find the right home for each little soul we work fast, within days so the dogs can go to their forever homes in quite a timely manner. We do not hold onto dogs for people as our goal is to save lives & please do not submit an application if you are not ready to adopt. We also cannot respond to every application unfortunately.

Bella & Sophie have a combined adoption fee of $1200 & are ready for their truly loving forever home & compassion & understanding of what they have been through.
