Roxy came into rescue because her caretaker was too ill to care for her any longer.  Many thanks to Lynn O’Shaughnessy for picking her up and to Tom and Theresa Pinta for fostering her. Her new family, the Agriesti’s, drove up to Michigan to meet the Pinta’s and take home their wonderful, new, little girl.

Quinn captured our hearts when we saw the photo of his sweet, fluffy, bear-like face and read his rescue story on the SOAR website. We agreed that Quinn could be a great addition to our family and wanted to adopt him. Over the past 20 years, we had two other Airedales in our family. Mactavish…

As part of the family she has definitely found a few perks around the house – she loves sleeping on the couch along side our old man Tucker and our little toddler is probably the best play toy ever. Guinny is very gentle and kind with that streak of Airedale orneriness! We love her!Jessy, Brian…
