We are celebrating the 8th anniversary of the Westie Highland Games this year. What could be better than seeing a group of Westies all together in one place and meeting other Westie lovers! And the icing on the cake is that this event is for a good cause ... helping homeless Westies find their new and forever home! 100% of all funds raised help pay Veterinarian costs for these Westies.
This event is brought to you by Westie Rescue of Canada (WRC). WRC is a Canadian registered charity, (No. 815245626RR000). WRC has been helping homeless Westies across Canada find their new, forever homes for 10 years.
Any and all Westies and Westie lovers are welcome. Come and and join us for a Terrier-ific day and lots of Westie-ful fun!Click here to join us on Facebook to keep up-to-date with any and all Westie Highland Games news.
