WEREWOLVES IN LONDON

OF WISCONSIN 26 APRIL 2017
On 23 April, I received an email from Shannon A., receptionist at Kenosha Animal Hospital, where my family's dogs have been clients since 1960: I'm reaching out to you to see who I need to contact about finding a home for a 6 year old male Cairn Terrier (not sure if he is neutered or not). One of my coworker's grandfather owns two dogs - the Cairn Terrier and a 3-4 year old Blue Heeler mix - both dogs are apparently kept in cages in his basement and are only let out to eat and go potty. She just informed me that her father talked the grandfather into surrendering the dogs as this is no kind of life for them. I don't know much more about him at this point, but will hopefully have more information by the end of the day and am trying to get a picture of him as well. Thank you for any guidance you can give me. Of course, I immediately called her (the phone number is imprinted on my brain) and told her I would contact Shell Lewis, Midwest Placement Director, to make arrangements to have this dog taken in to CRUSA, if the photos show that he is, in fact, a Cairn Terrier. I called Shell about this dog and told her that CairnDaddy was in Kenosha and could probably help with pickup, Bed & Breakfasting and transport, if needed.

Amanda, one of the other gals at the office, met the dog (didn't even get his name; bad me!); he's intact, filthy, matted, you name it. BUT . . . he's sweet & friendly. Amanda is going to text me some pics later tonight and then we'll make arrangements to get the dog. We will be dealing directly with the elderly gentleman who owns the dog (not the clinic). Let me see where he lives and then we'll figure out who should get him and when.
My original plan was to get him to Shannon & Joe Radosevich until I got home from Missouri and THEN move him down to Lisa in NW Indiana. But . . . there is a potential adopter in New Berlin [which is close by Shannon & Joe]. They adopted Tavish years ago and he recently passed; they want to adopt another middle-aged male. I would love to give them an opportunity to meet this guy and possibly FTA.
So that's where we're at. As soon as I know more I'll let you know what I know! As it stands now, on the afternoon of 26 April, CairnDaddy will be picking up The Wolf Man tonight and bringing him directly to Shannon & Joe R. They will have him groomed and vetted; he will then possibly be moved to New Berlin for fostering. GOOD JOB, EVERYONE. THANK YOU, SHANNON A., AMANDA, NEAL, SHELL, SHANNON & JOE R.! CairnDaddy has promised to take pics, so stop back later tonight and/or tomorrow. PATRICIA YARNOT: Here's to his new life! JACKIE IKE: Awwww, he is so cute! Hope I never get that way, where I can't care for my dogs and won't give them up. Thanks for saving him, Andréa, and Neal for helping too. Hope his FTA will work out. MAUREEN SCOTT In CANADA: Wow! Another star in all your crowns! Good work!! MARILYN ROYLE: It is so fortunate that it is all working out! Thanks to everyone for pulling this together!
