            Pat,

            After a few days of playing telephone tag, I was able to speak with Caroline Orman today and we had a good conversation. Champ is like their 3rd child, she told me. He goes everywhere with them and those times he can’t go with them on vacation, they have someone come to stay with him. Their daughter, Catherine, has pretty much grown up with him as she was just 1-1/2 YO when they rescued Champ and he is, she called him, “Catherine’s keeper.”

            They would like Champ to have a companion. There are a lot of dogs in the neighborhood. Champs shows interest but is not aggressive. They have neighbors with a goldendoodle who once came into the house, walked over to Champ’s food bowl, and ate all the food without Champ having an issue with him doing it. Champ isn’t territorial so adding another dog doesn’t seem as if it would be a problem.

            I asked about the size of their yard. She thinks it’s about 40′ x 50′. Part of that is bricked. I wondered how much space that would offer two dogs for running and playing. She told me that there are also side yards. I think the home visit can better discern the space. As I write this, I realize I forgot to ask about daily exercise/walks so the home visit volunteer will want to ask about that.

            Craven Animal Hospital – Champ is up to date with all vaccinations, kept up with all the prescribed meds, etc.

            Jill’s Pet Resort – Jill had high praise for the family and Champ and told me that Caroline would be an ‘ace’ candidate for adoption. Champ is in regularly for grooming and is a happy boy.

              2/16/2021: Message from JC that Tracey Yarborough needed to rehome Bonnie. After all the training it still is not working with Hank. Hank is not accepting her.

              “It is with a very heavy heart that I need to tell you after $2500.00 with a trainer things are not working out. Hank is very aggressive when she gets close to me. She is the sweetest girl, but I can’t continue to keep them separated.”

              Tracey also stated his father is dying of heart disease and Tracey has to spend a lot of time with him.

                  You’re welcome. He gave me a folder with great information and homework. Also told me to text, call, or email if any issues arise. I have a training log to complete and everything. For the first time in awhile there’s a calmness in the house and it feels good.

                  Good update. I thought about you today and had hoped the training was successful. Invest your time in the training and you will see the benefit.

                  Thanks for touching base.

                    to Barbara, me

                    Good afternoon,

                    I wanted to give you an update on Daisey’s first training session.

                    Larry was easy to work with and gave great instruction. He worked with both Daisey and Molly.

                    Today was the basics: recall, distance control, claiming the front door, walking, attentiveness, stay/back, boundaries, verbal commands and body language.

                    I have homework to do with each dog every day. The sibling rivalry will take time to work out. Once we get to where each dog needs to be on their own, we’ll be working through that.

                    I did see immediate changes in both of them with today’s training. Larry was pleased with the progress with both of them and tailored the training to each ones needs. He described Daisey as a pup who’s rough around the edges but wants to learn and do good. She definitely likes males and she took right to him.

                    Our next training is March 3 (his schedule is that booked). In the meantime, he gave us plenty to work on every day.

                    Thank you all for helping with this. Like I said, I see an immediate change in Daisey and we’ll work daily to solidify what we’ve learned.

                    Jessica

                        Hi, Julie. I’ve been in the hospital and have been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and am unable to do much for ARG. I’ve copied Pat Hairston who will help you with Zeus. I’m so sorry this didn’t work out like we all hoped it would. We will look for immediate placement for Zeus. With your knowledge of him, please help us with what you think he needs to thrive.

                        We’ll do what he needs.

To date, we’ve spent over $3K and transferred them in and out of the crate 780 times. We’re really exhausted and broke from trying to make this work, and I feel horrible for Maddie. She’s the whole reason we were looking for a dog in the first place. I wanted her to have more quality playtime. Instead, her existing playtime was cut in half. Neither of them are having their needs met. I wrote to Nikki a week or so back about her first visit here, which was supposed to be tomorrow. I thought it was their “reintroduction day.” She wrote back that they’re nowhere near being reintroduced. It’s just too much. I hope you’ll get back to me this weekend.

I started sending Maddie for dog sitting 3 days a week to socialize her, because she’s dog-aggressive. I never knew this, because she’s been great with our other dogs and my daughter’s dog. I guess it’s because she was raised with them. This has been difficult… timing everything to a tee so that she and Zeus each get enough play. training, hand feeding, and muzzle acclimation time each day on top of regular feedings and potty breaks. The entire day is about them, regardless of whether we have work or plans. That would’ve been okay, but we’re still nowhere close to getting to reintroduce them. And it’s costing a lot of money… $800 out of pocket, plus another $250 weekly. Jamie’s trying but frustrated. I’m trying but exhausted. I’m so sorry. I hate this and don’t want to part with Zeus, but it’s created a negative situation for them both and us that doesn’t seem to have an end in sight. I’m not sure how you want to handle this. Of course, we’re willing to drive him wherever we need to. – Julie

                          to me, christina, Barbara
                          I just spoke to Heather Heath and had a good conversation with her. They are not in a big rush for a dog, they are willing to wait to get the right fit for their family. They would like a male preferrably not much older than 2. They have a 6 year old male, neutered mixed terrier that is 25 lbs. They lost their Airedale, Watson, last month. Their application said that their dog would be alone for 7 hours daily so we discussed this issue. Normally she works from 8:00-2:30 but her two boys are in and out so any dog would be able to have a potty break. With Covid her husband has been working from home for the last 10 months and Heather is currently working from home because someone at her workplace has the virus.

                          I called their vets office and both dogs have always been kept up to date with their vaccines and heartworm medications.

                          I asked her about a home visit and she said she would be comfortable having someone come over and they could see their fenced in area and they could speak outside. I told her that I would put her in touch with someone who could do their home visit.

                          On a side note she said that both she and her husband would be very interested in helping out with transport if the need comes up in her area.

                          Thanks
                          Sue

                              Hi Pat,

                              I was working with Jackie on finalizing the adoption of Beau. I saw the email where it said to contact you. I hope Jackie is okay. She had sent the contract. I have to sign and send in the $400 adoption fee. Before I do that here is the attached vet bill from getting him microchipped. It shows the microchip as $59.50. Do I take that out of the adoption fee or would you rather reimburse? Just let me know.

                              Thank you!

                                Thanks for replying. Would it be alright if I reached out to the TART group to see if they have any Airedales available?

                                Advised TART would likely send her back to us; recommended Sue T not even follow-up. moved to NEVER ADOPTED

                                  Hi Katherine, It was nice to meet you and Jon. Thanks for taking the time so that we could meet in person. I think an airedale would be a great fit for your home. Your neighborhood is great for dog walking! At this point there is nothing additional needed from you all.
