04/16/19: Maybe Jackie Rowan when he’s ready. Asked Sue Mioduser to have her vet quote on extracting his bad teeth.
04/15/19: In conversation with Barbara Calhoon this weekend, found out that Macy had died of kidney disease.
What happened with Macy
She developed kidney problems and apparently severe kidney problems and went down very fast and died. The vet said that there wasn’t much you could do. They got her when she was about 7; was 8-1/2 when she died. They had her checked out and had been to the vet. She was on special food and taking meds. She took her in one Sat morning and the vet said then that it was a probably a quality of life issue and they should consider euthanizing. But Barbara took hr home and she died Sunday evening.
Before they got her, she was being fed Vienna sausages.
Macy allergic to beef. So changed Pookah’s food. For some reason Bill decided to change back to beef after Macy was gone. Barbara didn’t think much about it and had a bag of salmon at grocery. She ate sometimes and sometimes she wouldn’t eat. Changed totally to old food. She just wouldn’t eat.
Puca slipped out the front door and disappeared. February 14 she’s been gone.Dog Guy Josh – needs to meet and assess; rescue they give a discount

04/11/19: First message to info@AiredaleRescueGroup.com
Hello!My name is Stephanie Ravegum and I live in Colorado. I received word this morning that my 98 year old grandmother has fallen and fractured her neck. She has a 10 year old Airedale, Lucy, who I am looking to find a long-term foster or re-home. I am reluctant to look locally as she lives in a military town in North Carolina, and I know that animals tend to be transient in that community. I am looking for a stable place for Lucy to see how this plays out. I was in the animal rescue industry years ago, I know the importance of knowing the breed. She is a high energy girl, loves to run, adores people and other dogs. We have entertained the thought of keeping her, but right now, we have a 17 year old lab, a 14 year old lab and a 2 year old lab. I don’t think it would be fair to introduce a new dog to our oldest dog.
Could you please advise me on how your rescue works? If you are even able or willing to foster her…she is current on all vaccinations, spayed and groomed.
Thank you so much in advance for any advice or consideration.
All the best,
Stephanie Ravegum

Multiple emails between Barbara, Pat, and Stephanie about what to do with Lucy. Pat recommended Jeanne Monast to apply and it looks like Jeanne and her husband will adopt Lucy after Easter. They understand her situation.04/12/19: Spoke to Sue Mioduser today about Banjo:
Banjo is acting like a puppy. He’s so social.
He’s not that cute.
Look into Airedale’s eyes. They know exactly what you’re saying.
So sweet. Sit, down. Good dog. He thinks he’s a lap dog.
At the vet for a bath and wanted to go over the stuff with her vet. Dr in TN wanted her to come back in 6 weeks for recheck of urinalysis. Check 1 wk. In great shape.
No resource guarding with a bone, but
Growled at her trying to get Frosty Paws
Very playful! Loves tennis balls and plays with them by himself.
65 lbs
Short and stumpy
Ok on leash
Her husband loves him and keeps asking if they can keep him
Skin looking better, itching a little
Want bath 2x a week
Nails are not excessively long
He is a runner.
Vet scanned the tag and it’s a 602In photo his ears are hound-looking and his snout is kind of pointed.
The photos of his teeth are horrible!
04/12/19: Addie renamed Sherlock Charlie. All has been fine until today when Addie sent me a FB Message. They’ve had Charlie since March 2015. But now they have an 18-mo-old child:
04/12/19: FB Messenger:
I’m at the point where at just don’t know what I can do- Charlie is extremely jealous of Jackson- my son. We created a playroom for Jackson and Charlie has urinated on the floor and all over his toys so many times that I’ve had to replace everything twice and now we are in process of ripping out the carpet and laying vinyl hardwood because it’s waterproof and our current situation is not sanitary. While in process Charlie peed all over the stack of wood making it unusable. Then he peed all over the underlayment and it went UNDER the existing hardwood floor we have laid so we ripped it all back out and are having to start again. He goes to Camp Woof on Tuesdays and Thursdays and Saturday and Sunday. I hike with him 4+ miles twice a week. He’s acting out because of my kid and I’m scared.And frankly I’m going broke trying to keep my home sanitary- we paid for a trainer to come in in the beginning to work with Charlie while Jackson was brand new, but I can’t afford that again- I just don’t know if I can have him around my child when he obviously has so much resentment.

info@dogspeak101.com04/10/19: Spoke to Brenda Justice 1-843-368-7297 with BarkBusters. She worked with the Buchanans only one time with Millie, trying to teach her to walk on leash. They were using a harness and it is difficult to teach a dog to heel that way. She would recommend a Martingale collar for Millie and when she pulls, just give her a “check,” a correction. BB offer a lifetime of training. If there is a BB rep where the Coughenors (who are considering adopting Millie) live, they will connect them.
She said Millie is very strong, but a sweet dog. She pulls. She nips at the kids’ pants to get them to pay attention to her. She wishes they had called on BB sooner.
