Our Mission

The main goal of the North American Border Terrier Welfare (NABTW) is to protect and act on behalf of any homeless Border Terriers. To attain this goal, those affiliated with the NABTW will obtain Border Terriers that are unwanted, impounded, neglected, abused or in other unpleasant situations. NABTW is responsible for placing all adoptable dogs in loving, permanent homes. The Border Terrier rescue provides temporary foster care, basic health care and temperament evaluation prior to placement to ensure an optimal match for the dog as well as the adopter. Rescue volunteers also provide training and education to the new owners of adopted rescues to ensure the success of the placements whenever possible.
