4/19/2020: Julie E.: 1 mo in Townhouse, no fenced in yard, Wheaten is 2 yo, Fiance can do lunch let out. Crate training if applicable, wants to run w/dog. Looking at Banjo and Buster. Calling Vet and groomer tomorrow 4/20
4/19/2020: Talked with Paul. They are waiting to clear property and build a home on 12 acrea. They will have a fenced area connected to the home. Currently living in a mobile home. It is not the time to take in an Airedale. He will contact me when they are closer to being ready.
4/19/20: Spoke with Jessie. Have an 8 yr old and a 1.5 yr old child. NOTE: In between the loss of their Airedale and application they had adopted a 14 month of berese-airedale mix that was extremely fearful of men. They ended up rehoming it with her sister who is single and the dog has done well there.
They are continuing to look for a dog to adopt. I would place these folks on low priority as they want a dog sooner then ARG will likely have one.
3/30/2020: Voicemail and email from Ian Dean. Current dog is now HW tested (neg) and he has HW/Flea preventative. He has switched vet practiices due to the one he was using “dropping the ball” on the HW testing per Ian. He was very proactive when questioned on this so I take that as a responsible dog owner.
Pending HV.
3/30/2020: Talked with Christen. Airedale knowledgable and have had Westie’s in the past. Would want a dog that is younger and active to be with their 3 yr old Airdale. They have put themselves on a waitlist for a puppy, but want to be on the AG wait list as they are unsure about doing puppyhood again. Talked with them about the dogs currently in rescue or coming in; are not up to the challenage of a timid dale.
Vet check was very good. Put on pending HV list.
3/20/2020; Spoke at lenght with Stephanie. Sounds like a great place for the right Airedale. She has 2 young children (3 and 5 yrs old) that want a dog they can snuggle. They have an older (13) mixed breed that misses their Airedale. Again, good home for the right dog.
3/20/2020. Vet check very good. Devoted owner who took good care and did all she could for the recently deceased Airedale. They did an individual creamation and that speaks to their love for the dog. per the receptionist at Neighborhood Vet.
Next step HV; but on hold for now due to COVID-19.
3/20/2020: Talked with Scott. Again, sounds like a knowledgeable Airedale person who had an Airedale as his best friend when growing up. His hound female is 12 yrs old would do best with an easy going male as she can’t keep up with a pup. He does use an e-collar for the dogs.
3/20/2020: talked to vet but it is the emergency vet. Scott uses the vet that visits the nearby Tractor Supply. I have requested the telephone number for this veterinarian.
3/20/2020: Ian is a govn contractor currently working from home. Airedale knowledgable. Has almost 3 yr old male Airedale (neutered). Seems like a good experienced Airedale home for the right dog to match.
3/20/2020: talked with Veterinary practice. They have seen current Airedale, but no HW or flea preventative has been purchased or a script written from their practice. Last purchased Feb 2019 when Ian lived in Kentucky. I have emailed Ian for proof of purchase; no reply yet.

Mon, Mar 16, 3:50 PM (3 days ago)I did the visit today Monday. Al has had big dogs all his life. Right now have pug/dachshund mix. He has joint custody of 10 yr old. Has her in house every other week. They also have very active 15 month old. Backyard not fenced but have 10×10 enclosure with doghouse in there. Also willing to use long lead till knows area. Thinking of expanding it if get the Airedale. He hunts deer and wild ducks and wants to bring along the dog if possible. Has no problem with taking it for training if need be. Would like 1-3 yr old. Home very nice. Will be using a crate when not home. Feel they would make good owners. They moved in just a few months ago and wanted to get process started. Feel they would be ready in a few months. Let me know if u need anything more. Glad to do the visit. Joanne
3/5/2020: Guy sent a Facebook PM to me that he was the owner of Leo.
“Guy Reylek: I am the owner of the missing Airedale. His name is Leo. I let him out of the house on Sunday morning so he could relieve himself. Normally he comes right back to the door within a few minutes. That morning he strayed. I found your messages about him by searching for Aired rescue and saw your post. Leo is a sweet dog that only wants to be good. I got him in 2009 about 1.5 years after my wife died. He has been a good companion. Certain situations have arisen where it is becoming difficult to give him the care he needs. I can discuss that if necessary. I would be more than willing to release him for adoption if someone would be willing to take on the responsibility of an older dog. Iron, the day he strayed was the day a new bed I bought for him arrived. I’ve got it sitting here in the shipping box. Please contact me if you think you can help me find someone willing to adopt him. Thank you for your caring and concern for Leo.”
I responsed and we talked on the phone after touching base with Jackie C. by telephone on what to offer. He seemed sad and not able to provide for Leo the way he thinks. His wife is allergic and has knee issues preventing her from walking much. Guy must be in NY once a month for a week to help his sister with their mother and uncle. Finding Leo an adoptive home seems to be the best solution. – Pat

to meHello Pat,
I just took in a stray and am not sure how she would respond to another dog. She does well with my elderly lab but not with my parent’s German Shepard. I would hate to foster or bring another dog into the mix right now. Thank you so much for reaching out! Don’t take me completely off the list, I hope to resolve this issue with my sweet stray!
Thanks,
Tanjy Spruill
