to me, Christina, JackiePat,
I am glad to hear Chewie is safe.
The husband was very hostile towards me during our last phone conversation and refused any advice .
He would not consider crating at night but wanted to go right to using an e-collar .
Chewie was definitely uncomfortable with Ed .
There is also some conflict between husband and wife .
I agree they should be considered in the future as suitable adoptees.Bless you for working out something quickly.

I agree for him to go to boarding. One of us may need to call him.
Chewie seems to be particular about men. I wonder what that is about. I also think he needs a thyroid check and perhaps be put on medication. I thought he was on Prozac for a short time.

to lynkennelRobin and Team,
Thank you so much for squeezing Chewie in. I have asked the surrender, Leslie Gargon, to bring him before 1 pm and to bring current records, which they have not provided to me. I have attached his DHP and Bordetella record and rabies from last year. I know he was updated in April.

Please bring any veterinary record you have as it seems I do not have his latest record.
Thank you,

Christina,
I wanted to update you. Since the incident early Thursday morning Ed has been ignoring Chewie. Chewie will occasionally growl at Ed if he walks by. As you can imagine there’s a lot of tension in the house. Thursday afternoon when we got a delivery Chewie was barking and growling and jumping at the window. It took a lot for Ed to get him calmed down.
We really need Chewie out of the house. I am needing to go out of town next Friday and do not want to leave Ed alone with the dog. If someone can’t get him we will need to put him down. I don’t want to do that, because most of the time he is good. But I can’t trust him anymore even on walks.cgreendr

to Christina, me, airedalemailChristina,
I am sorry to hear this as I spoke to them multiple times over the phone as well as discussed a recommended trainer with them . I do not have the issues others are seeing with him because I enforce some basic rules that provide needed clarity for him.
This dog does need someone committed to training and following the rules which in Chewie’s case includes using a crate to define space. It is not a one and done but a lifestyle for this boy. No matter how good he can be for me he will quickly take charge in the home of someone else if they do not follow through on setting boundaries.We are leaving for our beach vacation this Saturday returning May 31.
This is unfortunate timing.Cindy

to cgreendr@aol.com, me, airedalemail@comcast.netHi Cindy – I’m sorry to see this note from Leslie & Ed about Hughie/Chewie. We had offered the training classes to them, with the trainer you recommended and of course they did not use him. We received this note this morning. I have to ask – would you be willing to take him back until we can place him again? Thanks for considering.

Sent: Thu, May 19, 2022 6:59 amI regret to say we cannot keep Chewie. I thought we could work on some of the guarding issues, but we are not the ones he needs.
90% of the time he is a good dog, but when he’s not it’s a little more than we can handle. If he is laying down and we need him to move, or walk by him to close he growls and snarls. Last night Ed had gone to the kitchen at 4am and found Chewie on the couch, he told him to get off the couch. Chewie barked, growled and was snarling at Ed. Ed said if he hadn’t backed behind a chair he could have been bit.
This is not the first time something like this happened. When he gets like this he is very hard to control and get him to calm down. Occasionally when we are walking he will have issues and he is strong enough that it is very hard to control him.
It pains me to say we are not the family he needs. I know Cindy said this can be corrected with training, but we are not the ones who can give him what he needs.
Please have someone come pick him up. You are welcome to call and talk with us, but I just can’t have a dog that I’m worried about him biting us let alone anyone else.
Leslie and Edo airedalemail@comcast.net, me
hi – I asked Leslie what training they had done (bc of course she said she was going to take him to training); asked what training methods were working.
Do we have anyone who would be a good match for Chewie? I know we’ve had a few weeks of no matching – so maybe someone is waiting.
Do you think Cindy will take him back. I will email her to ask but wanted to know – send him to her for another re-set? OR place him with someone else if we can as next step.Christina Prange
