Hello Matthew and Holly, Susan and Jim,
I am a Airedale Rescue Group volunteer. I volunteer with Ava. I wanted to intro the Phillips and Burfords for the next step in our application process of a home visitPlease communicate with eachother for a time that y’all can meet for home visit. We ask that all family members be home for the home visit.
I realize that home visits typically take place on weekends and this weekend seems questionable for weather conditions. Please use judgement on when this occurs
Thanks
Christina Prange

other dog, male,Airedale, 7 mos older. he raised her, she suspects he has epilepsy and she started to attack him. He has seizure. She feels horrible but she can not separate them. They play rough together. she has 2 home cats and she stays with the cats. Does not touch home cats. WIll chase anything that runs. Has killed chickens.
lives with two teenagers – but would not put her with toddlers.
when she goes to work, she puts in crate or in a sunroom with doggy door.
can be good on leash but if she sees a ‘bird’ (geese) she will yank the leash. Uses a prong collar when in public.1/2026 owner texted that they will keep Willow and want to surrender Jo. Jo will go to Stephanie Osborne in Raleigh 1.17.26

I’m sad to report that my ARG girl, Zoey, crossed the Rainbow Bridge earlier this month. We adopted her in April 2020, during the lockdown. She was a perfect fit for our family from Day 1. She was my 5th Airedale and easily the smartest and sweetest I’ve had the honor to live with.
We would love to be considered for Airedales that need a home.
Do I need to renew my ARG application, or will my previous one survive.
Other than getting older, not much has changedairenata @ sonic.net
Thank you for giving us this opportunity to have an Airedale in our life again, even if only for a short hour or so. After loosing Bailey in September I don’t think I can stomach one more death. But helping with transport, or pulling an Airedale out of shelter in surrounding areas, or maybe one day down the row even fostering short term, for that please keep us in mind

Rosemary – foster mom
Rosemary did not know the original owner of Finnigan. Owner died in her sleep on Oct 25, 2025. It was unexpected as she was being treated for melanoma. Finn was in the room with her when she died. Apparently, Finn was like her child, they were very close. Prior to living in Austin Texas, Finn was from Savannah, GA. Finn was placed with a ‘friend’ of the owner in North Augusta, SC. Finn was transported from Austin to SC. It was a long trip and Finn was quite ‘discombobulated’. His ‘temp’ owner had never had a dog before, did not have a fence, had a new baby and a 5 year old child. Rosemary knew this new owner from seeing her in the neighborhood and she could tell the lady was having a hard time and Rosemary offered to take Finn from her at that time. Rosemary said that she has a small dog and a big yard, she lives with her sister. When he first came into their home, he was nervous and took a while to warm up to them(he had been through so much change, and he was still very sad from his owner’s passing). Rosemary put him in a board training program. She has never fostered and she wanted to set Finn up for success – if a new family would take him, she wanted them to get a full package for a family, she wanted him to be set up well and good manners. She took him to her vet and brought him up to date on his health. He is in very good health, a good dog – super playful, likes to go on walks everyday. He is 83 lbs, age 7 years old.Now that he is back with her, she explained Finn as a great dog. He is not super brave, pretty timid but happy. He likes spending time in her fenced back yard. She said it’s a chain length fence and he could probably jump it but shows no indication that he would. She takes him on daily walks and the trainer is working with them on ‘loose leash’. He still barks at people as he sees them on walks so the trainer is coming to work with Rosemary/Finn on that. Finn has been trained on a ‘shock’ collar and he is very responsive to it.
Rosemay does not know how he would be with kids. In the short 2-3 days that he lived with her neighbor, he was over stimulated, he was upset with all of the change and that time is no indication of him being with kids. With the right introductions and parent oversight, he would probably be fine. He is good with people – very nice dog. She said he likes treats and takes them gently.
