On 4 July, Frances Martin of
OKLAHOMA AIREDALE RESCUE writes:

Craig's List: 'Free to good home, Airedale pups.'

So, I called: 'Is the pup a boy or a girl?'

'What do you want? I've got both!'


Ph


And so it goes . . . .
After a several-minute conversation,
I 'fessed up and told the man on the phone
that I helped out with Airedale Rescue and
would take any dogs he wanted to give me.
His reply: 'Come get them all, including the parents!
can't sell the pups and I'm done with Airedales.'
(YAY, YAY, YAY!!!!)


Ph


Next day, I drive out to the country and
pick up seven of the cutest little pups,
along with the very friendly, very tick-infested parents.


Ph


They go straight to the kennel,
where we set up an assembly line:
Bathe & soak in Dawn™,
go outside to dry off,
come back in to be dipped,
go back outside to dry off.

We stopped counting the number of ticks that we pulled off.

Pups are sent off to their foster homes and I keep the parents. They've never been inside, and Scout stood at the door, afraid to come in. Poor Maddie bumped her head on the glass storm door, thinking there was nothing there.

Vet report comes back: Yes to tick disease; no (thankfully) to heartworm. Maddie also has a urinary tract infection.

After a several-hour groom-a-thon, the masses of hair come off. Lo and behold! What stunning Airedales!

Maddie & Scout are now cleaned, groomed, tick-free, and on the road to recovery. They will need to go through a month of doxycycline before being spayed & neutered. This is probably a good thing so they can rest, eat some good nutritious food, and get healthy.

AND, it just so happens that today, July 4,
is Scout's 5th birthday!
Happy birthday, Scout. Welcome to freedom . . . .
