        I am the volunteer with Airedale Rescue that has been assigned your application to adopt.

        Do you have availability this weekend, either Saturday or Sunday, after 2:00 pm? If not, Monday or Friday I’m available after 12:30, Tuesday after 2:00, and Wednesday/Thursday I have availability pretty much any time.

        Let me know a time that works for you both. I’ll call from the number below.

        Looking forward to speaking with you both!
