Subject: Re: Hudson
From: 4dales@gmail.com
Well Mr. Hudson was neutered yesterday and did very well :)) But Dr. Waite told me that he showed some aggression towards their ceramic cat that they have in their waiting room. Well it is an ugly figurine I don’t blame him but kitties maybe an issue. He also received his microchip and I have the paperwork for that. I would be happy to register him but I need to know what information I should put down, addresses, ph #’s etc.
I hope to take him out tomorrow for a walk (weather permitting) can’t wait to see the guy.

Pat will mail vet records to Cprange

I have the vet records from Fairbanks North star animal shelter and North Pole Vet Hosp ( yes –North Pole)
I wonder if it was their other dog 47 lb or Zelda 60 lb who was the “grumpy dog”
Remember I said she was very apprehensive toward the other dogs out in the play yard—NOT AGGRESSIVE
my puppy is very playful and would not be the best dog to try and see how she would get along—but he is beyond friendly—so should I try bringing Quincy to meet Zelda?
She must be so very confused, she is not hyper , not a tv remote eater—-just a nice dog—-I did have her in a prong collar, but she did not seem to pull
I wish I had a home, I would bring her with me; but my friend is being very cool with two cats and a dog
Update from Chris
Yes, he is confirmed HW positive, after the second test.
“a low burden load” they told her this afternoon.
Per Gale Ford when I asked her about the HW situation as explained by Chris in note above

I would put him on heart guard and retest in 1- 3 months. Sometimes we get a positive and there is only a single adult worm or oddly enough only the single sex infrection. Downside is he might need to be treated in future, but I Would definitely NOT treat at this time.
Heading to Auburn this week for CE leaving on Wed back on Monday. Going to visit Sue (really, Gale, what are you doing.)

Look what we found underneath all that puppy hair! He is so handsome and so very sweet. Dr. Waite is confident he is a very healthy boy. Heartworm was negative under microscope, but he sent it to a lab to be certain and we should hear about that tomorrow. He is scheduled for neuter on Thurs. if lab work is negative. I took him for a long walk yesterday and he is very good on a leash. He waited very patiently while I picked up after him, but he will not and is not interested in sitting (needs work there). I have never heard him bark nor has the kennel keepers, so that is a plus, he is very quiet boy. He does weigh 55 pounds (a little thin) but he is a good eater and once his life settles he will put that on in no time. He is very smart and
listens well he just needs someone very gentle to help him with his basics. He is a dream of an Airedale and just wants to be loved and he likes to give lots of love back.
I will let you know about blood lab work and neuter tomorrow I hope there is a wonderful family waiting for this very special boy.
I hope you also get the picture I attached let me know if you didn’t.
Per Chris Lincoln
I took Hudson on a long walk this morning and he is a great guy. He probably has never been walked, but generally did well. He is very affectionate and gentle and will make a great addition to someone’s home.
We have not seen any aggression and he loves to please and give kisses!
We took him to the kennel this morning after he ate a good breakfast at our house. He will be groomed shortly and vet checked Monday. More pics, once he is more handsome. He is a great find and appears to be quite healthy

sorry, just got your message—try and get a photo later
the dog is lovely, quiet and a leaner, seems a little shy, and when we got out and other dogs were barking he did not bark back–pulled away opposite the dogs–then saw the office and pulled toward the door. very happy inside and friendly towards the staff.
great in the car, medium size dog, gentle when she took a cookie,very attentive to her owners listened when he called and went to him immediately
well groomed, clear eyes, seems in excellent health, soft mouth, short tail-3 inch or so,nice ears
good looking dog

Subject: Re: Zelda
I hope you were able to get the vet records. If not, let me know which clinic has them and I will see what I can do. I only know what some of the people told me that picked her up when she was wandering the streets of Fairbanks. She was very sweet, got along with their small dog (it may have been a bossy dog, who knows). She had an injured foot at that time and she let them look at it and clean the wound. The only time I talked to her owners, I was told that she came from somewhere outside of Alaska, they didn’t remember. So, she has really covered a lot of territory.
Always,
Jan

Subject: Zelda
I see you have Zelda. I tried for a couple of years to get her into rescue here. She popped up on Craigslist several times when someone would find her out wandering around. Her owners are in Fairbanks and I am in Wasilla, an 8 hour drive. I had people up there ready to pick her up, but the owners wouldn’t even discuss it. I see they let someone else have her and now they have given her up. It’s amazing to me that she has traveled so far. She was always running loose and got pretty far from home several times, but this really takes the cake. I hope you are able to find a good home for her, I had people waiting to meet her and possibly adopt, but sadly, it never happened. It’s good to know that she is finally safe in rescue. Let me know how it goes with her.
Give her a good ear scratch from me.

I grew up with Airedales, so I do know they were bred to get small animals. We have a very submissive male dog, and she still does not get along with him. I wish she would! Also, forgot to mention that she did have a benign mammary tumor removed right before we adopted her. What would happen at the meeting Monday? Would we hand her over then?

She is an adorable dog, and I hate to give her up, but she just doesn’t fit in with our family. I hope you can find the perfect family for her. We can get her to Savannah.

Oops! Sorry for the incomplete email! Anyway, she is microchipped, and has an ear tattoo, but is hard to see due to the cauliflower ear. I’ve attached a couple pictures taken today, and will send the relinquish form in a few minutes. Thanks again.

Subject: Airedale needs new home
Hi, my name is Christina Ketchen. I have a 9 year old female Airedale, Zelda, I need to surrender. I adopted her 3 months ago in Alaska, and have since traveled down to Decatur, Alabama. We have tried incorporating her into our family with our cat and other dog, but unfortunately, she does not get along with other animals. She is a very sweet, devoted, and playful dog, but we cannot get her to accept our other pets. She is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and generally healthy. She has apparently had untreated ear infections in the past, as she has cauliflower ears. She’s great with people, and calm in the house. My family is military, and will be traveling to Georgia on Saturday, and hope we can find a place for her before we leave. Please let me know if this is a possibility, as soon as possible. Thank you for any help you can give me, in this urgent situation. I do not want to leave her at the shelter here, as it is a kill shelter, and she deserves better.
Christina Ketchen
