Hello,

I have 2 Airedale’s that I need rescued for placement. They are both female, one going on 7 this November and one about the same age. Traveler we’ve had since she was a puppy, Duchess about a year. Traveler is about 70+ pounds with Duchess about 55(I’m guessing)

They are both purebred, with one spayed and one not spayed.

They do not hunt. We have had one since she was a puppy, and one almost a year now. They do not get along with each other at all, & we’ve tried to allow them to co exist but they just aren’t feeling it. Traveler is smart, she needs training most of all. She pulls on her leash, and she’s very strong. Duchess is just scattered all over the place. She was used as a breeder and we tried to help him out, but it’s just too much for us.

My husband and I are both disabled, (81, & 67) and not steady on our feet as we used to be. It’s becoming more and more hazardous for us to keep them, especially as they don’t get along.

We’d prefer them to be the only dog(because we just don’t know how they’d be with other dogs- maybe ok, but we can’t say. They do have a very high prey drive. They’re not aggressive with people- just each other it seems.

If you are aware of anyone legitimate that would give them a loving home, I’d sure appreciate a referral.Inline image

Hi Scott,

Did you hear anything about the female Airedale in Pinehurst?

We have an incoming 5.5 yr old Airedale male, Sam. Neutered, up to date on vaccines. He is being rehomed due to the owners health. Does good with small dogs. Here is his info:

If you are interested we will work on transport.

Good morning Pat,
We are definitely able to go pick up and transfer. Dennis isn’t fully on board with
adoption, not knowing how he is with kids and cats, and the process involved in finding that out, but I am! Ha! It’s only one picture, but his face looks calm, and his size isn’t overwhelming. So, I’m not sure what you would suggest for this situation. It makes it hard to plan for transport I’m sure. Maybe at pick-up every thing would fall into place? Who knows, sometimes a sweet face speaks to you😉. But, we can talk pickup details for sure.

Thanks, Terry

waiting to hear Terr’s availability to get Kipper.

Hi Terry,

We were contacted about a young Airedale est 15 months in the Morrisville Humane Society in TN (2.5 hrs away from you). I talked to the shelter this morning and was told he is calm, does not jump on the kennel, knows some basics, likes to be scratched and tested well with their test dog at the shelter.

He is neutered and has been brought up to date on vaccines. Of course, we do not know about children or cats.

Would you be interested? And if so, might you be able to travel to get him or meet someone who could pull him.

Thanks much!
Pat

Hello,

I am writing about Kipper, the 4 yr old Airedale.

I was contacted by an Airedale owner who met an Animal Control Officer who indicated you had Airedale at your facility that no one has claimed.

Airedale Rescue Group serves TN, AL, GA, NA and SC. We are willing to step in and take responsibility for Kipper. We need to make arrangements for someone to pull him for our organization and get him to a foster home.

Please let me know the next step.

So very interesting woman has had Airedales practically her whole life, even bred them a long time ago.
Wants a puppy, less than a year.
Stated Coco was brought up with 9 dogs but now has a tough time being cordial with animals outside the home. She thinks she would use a muzzle on Coco when she gets another dog. Electric fence
She’s retired from education last year due to the pandemic .Has a house keeper.
States she is getting an Airedale puppy from breeder Frank Freeman – New Point Kennel either way, she also wants a beagle puppy.
VET: Coco UTD, seen consistently, Lucy 2019 seen consistently but the receptionist said there are many animals but not all seen consistently.
I explained we rarely have puppies (<1yr).
So I'm thinking we put her as a last resort. I don't think she needs a denial letter. I think wants she gets a puppy from the breeder and/or beagle she'll be satisfied with having a full house again.

As a funny, she's so southern I had trouble understanding her for the 1st 5 minutes. ha! DAWG......ha!
