NCTCA Rescue Program
An important
part
of our Club charter is to run an active Cesky
Terrier rescue program. We are committed to ensuring that no Cesky
Terrier is abandoned in a time of need.

The
purpose of NCTCA Cesky Rescue is to aid any Cesky Terrier who may need an
advocate to act in his best interests. Cesky
Rescue will provide foster care, veterinary treatment and temperament
evaluation before placing any Cesky Terrier in a new home. Most dogs
will be neutered or spayed before going to their new homes.
Cesky Rescue will not purchase dogs. This service is for dogs
whose breeder is unknown or unable to help any dog of their
breeding. The NCTCA maintains that all breeders must be
responsible for all dogs bred by them throughout the lifetime of the
dogs.
NCTCA
Cesky Rescue is part of a not-for-profit organization and
relies on donations to the NCTCA Rescue Fund. When a dog is relinquished, a
donation is usually requested. Those who adopt rescues are also asked
for a donation to offset costs incurred while the dog was under the
care of the rescue program.
Additional
donations from individuals are always greatly appreciated.
Often people looking for a
rescue Cesky want a young dog, most requested being a 2 year old
female. Please keep in mind that rescues come in all shapes,
sizes, ages, and condition. Consider opening your heart to an
older rescue, or one that has medical or behavioral issues.
These dogs can have so much to offer, and you will be repaid many
times over for your kindness. |

We
have had several rescue situations over the years, but fortunately they have
not been that common. We thank our members for their generosity in
supporting rescues in the past, and for rising to the occasion when Cesky
Terriers have needed their assistance. As the breed gains popularity, an
unfortunate consequence is more dogs in rescue, so ongoing support of rescue
is always critical.
If
you are interested in adopting, fostering, assisting, or know of a Cesky in
need, please get in touch with one of our rescue contacts listed below:
