For the Love of Airedales--Rescue One!


Hi ho, MMMLogerinos!

We're owned by Airedales, the kings of terriers. Our current Airedale, Emma, is a rescue dale who came to us when we lost our beloved Airedale Haynes' Glenne Glee after fifteen years. Emma's been running the joint for three years now and has just about got us trained. That black and tan fuzz ball on the sofa in the picture is Emma. It's funny how people fall in love with a dog breed and, for them, there's no dog smarter, cuter, funnier or better looking than that breed. For us and a large number of others across the world, it's generally terriers and specifically Airedales.

The following is a post from Jann Rogers of Northwest Airedale Terrier Rescue with a link to the mentioned national newsletter full of stories that will make you smile as well as cry for what some of these dear rescue dales have suffered in their early lives.

Every year, one of our national volunteers publishes our Rescue Airedale 911
newsletter. The newsletter has Airedale rescue stories that have been
submitted from rescue volunteers all across the country along with important
notes on training and healthcare for Airedales. This is the first year that
our rescue newsletter can be viewed online and in color! I have attached
the link for your viewing enjoyment.

This is a good time to, also, say hello if we haven't communicated in a
while and for me to request all rescue homes and volunteers to email me with
any changes in your contact information and any updates on your rescue
Airedale for my files.

Be sure your Airedale is microchipped and do use my contact information as
backup to yours. Be sure to cut back and/or eliminate most vaccinations
based on the wealth of information now available to dog owners and their
vets. Also, do take advantage of the "support groups" for Airedales that
are available through email lists (links on our national and regional
websites).

We continue to have a constant stream of Airedales come to us for rehoming
here in the Pacific Northwest. Sadly, the holidays are one of our busiest
times. If you would like to offer any assistance (foster, transportation,
grooming, homechecks), please let me know.

Thank you for continuing to be ambassadors for Airedale rescue and letting
good prospective Airedale homes know about our efforts in this region.
