Westies in Need - WiN


Ottawa Westie Walk-2009

Hello! My name is Kim McLean and I want to thank each and everyone who made the Ottawa Westie Walk such a big success.

Sunday, June 7th brought 33 westies and their fun lovin' owners together to make new acquaintences, play some westie fun games and take home some wonderful prizes.
Although overcast and cool, the rain held off and our 1st annual Westies in Need (WiN) fundraiser was a GREAT success!

THANKS to each and every one of you .... we raised a little over $1,700.00 for WiN Rescue. We couldn't have done it with out you!!


A very special 'Thank You' to our much loved "Westie Dad", Pat McLean, who supports Mom's volunteer efforts with Westies in Need!
Love, Libby (aka Princess)

I think dogs are the most amazing creatures; they give unconditional love. For me they are the role model for being alive
