based on his above note I explained that i was glad he understood the activity needs of a terrier and that when BL got back we’d tackle all of the applicants and get back to speed.

Thanks for the email!
Riley is a sweetheart and around 15 pounds! She is very good around other dogs. Michelle and I are very calm and stable and have a very calm and stable relationship. Our house does NOT have a fenced yard, however, I would rarely leave a dog unsupervised in a yard. It goes against what I have learned to be successful. Michelle and I are highly active and would have no problem caring for the exercise needs of an Airedale. Poor Riley has gotten to the age that she can only walk for about forty five minutes without being picked up and carried home!! Laziness or stubbornness or old age!! Riley is leashed trained and will make a great impression on whoever chooses to conduct our interview. Michelle has fallen in love with the profile of Elle may, however I feel we should take more time to settle into our home before making such a large decision. What are your thoughts on the temperament of Airedales regarding this!?
Thank you VERY much for your time,
Connor Maltsberger

Hello Laura,
My name is Christina and I am a volunteer with ARG. I wanted to thank you for your application to ARG. Normally, our volunteer named Barbara Lawson handles applications and interviewing however her computer started to fail her last week and by Saturday she had to take it to the repair shop. Followed by a planned family vacation and then I went away for a few days…..we’re delayed in our applicant care! So, I’m warning you that there will be a little delay in starting our communications with a few recent applications – like you! I did want to get a note off to you to let you know that we received your application though.
Our process starts by checking vet references and then an interview(s), followed up by a home visit. I see that you have a lot of good dog experience. Sayde sounds like a great dog and i bet she would be super playful with a new Airedale in the family
Since Barbara is without her computer and then a vacation, I wanted to welcome you all and let you know that we’ll start the process of checking the references. Please let me know if you have any questions and I look forward to talking with you.

West of Marietta, about 30 min outside of Marietta. We do have a former adopter (I do not remember) who is named Amanda Drummond however she had a bad experience wtih communication from ARG. She has an airedale again. I wonder who remembers Amanda. I will ask Bay to check her memory on computer. Maybe we can reconnect with Amanda.
Christina, I spoke to Christine at the Dallas Hwy. Animal Hospital and she said that Laura is a 3 star client out of 4 so she highly recommends them for adopting. Her boxer boards there and is well kept up on vaccines, flea and tick meds and all around vet visits so she looks good from this end!
Thanks
Sue

Hello Lee
I wanted to thank you for your application to ARG. I have enjoyed corresponding with you about your questions on Airedale terriers. Normally, our volunteer named Barbara Lawson handles applications and interviewing however her computer started to fail her last week and by Saturday she had to take it to the repair shop. Followed by a planned family vacation and then I went away for a few days…..we’re delayed in our applicant care! So, I’m warning you that there will be a little delay in starting our communications with a few recent applications – like you! I did want to get a note off to you to let you know that we received your application though.
Our process starts by checking vet references and then an interview(s), followed up by a home visit. I know that you have a lot of good terrier experience. With your past experience with fox terriers, I dare say that you might find an Airedale easier. I know you said one of yours was more laid back for a terrier. I’m glad you understand the realm of activity that a terrier can bring.
Since Barbara is without her computer and then a vacation, I wanted to welcome you all and let you know that we’ll start the process of checking the references. Please let me know if you have any questions and I look forward to talking with you.

Riley is part terrier -I bet you’ll love the personality of Airedales! What size is Riley? I noticed that you do not have a fence. How is Riley with house training and do you have a place for her to go on walks? Is Riley leash walked?

kaycee was turned into Murray County Animal Shelter. It is the county next to Pat and Pat works closely with her humane society. The owner turned her in and said to euthanize her because her leg was broken. Pat was able to use the humane society GA license to pull the dog. Her name was “Dog” and Pat named her Kaycee. She had thrown up in the animal control car and she also has thrown up in Pats car. SHe is one year old. Owner said that her leg was caught in her crate and that is how broken but clearly there is another story.

Here are the up to date Vet papers on Tilly showing lab work and the negative heartworm result.
Note that I have added that she has been given Heartguard and we applied Advantix .We also have her on a high quality food-Blue Buffalo Lamb and Rice formula.
She in only about 43lbs, but had alot of fun and excercise running around our back yard (chasing a ball and critters).She has a good appetite now, so I expect she’ll start putting a little weight on.
She knows some commands,sit&stay(when she chooses ). She is a calm dog and has shown no aggression, rarely barks and not easily startled.She however is very uncomfortable with storms and looks for places to hide(she finally settled on an interior bathroom and was allowed to stay there as long as she wanted).
She is such a sweet,loving dog and is going to make a great addition to someone’s family.
If you need hard copies of any of the paperwork,let us know and we’ll be happy to mail it to you.

Belinda returned my call and she adopted a boy named Charlie from NC Airedale Rescue Group in January. Maggie is age 15 and still doing well. Charlie is 4 or 5 y/o. He came from Memphis – had been on Craigslist and was severly underwt. Sounds like it was a direct adoption from the kennel where he was to Belinda – no fostering. I told her to let me know if she ever needed anything but I hoped that she, Maggie & Charlie had a long time ahead together as a family.
