How We Use Your Donations
SOAR is an all-volunteer organization...we do not have any paid staff. This means that your donations go directly to assist the Airedales that come under our care and support our rescue efforts.
Our first priority is always the well-being of the Airedales that pass through our hands. We make sure that once they are in rescue, they are brought up-to-date on shots, parasite-free, heartworm free, and spayed or neutered. Each of our Airedales is microchipped. We address any illnesses or injuries and do as much as possible to get the Airedales ready to live healthy lives in their new homes. We work to solve behavior problems that otherwise might keep an Airedale from being successfully adopted. Each Airedale is also given a new collar, leash, and tag to take with them to their new home.
We very much appreciate your support!
We Thank Our Donors
Because of the support of generous donors like you, SOAR is able to help homeless Airedales in Indiana, Ohio and Michigan find their way to new families and a bright future. We appreciate your support and more importantly, so do the Airedales

Layla Fox
I wanted to let our friends know that we had to bid our beautiful Layla goodbye on Saturday (January 2, 2016). She came into our lives almost 6 years ago and, although she faced some medical challenges, she always bounced back. This time it was just too much for her. She was 13 years and…

Read More Mac McGuinness
I wanted to do something in Mac’s memory. He was such a good boy. He was a rescue at 18 months and an ex show dog who, for some reason, had become aggressive in the ring. He was given to me as a gift from the breeder as I’d just lost my 9 year old in…

It is with a heavy heart I want to tell everyone that my Baby Girl has crossed over to the Rainbow Bridge. She was my companion and strength throughout life’s struggles. She was always there for Deb, Marilyn and me, never complaining, just there with those huge brown eyes wanting to help soothe the pain.…
Read More Maggy Welty
To know an Airedale is to love an Airedale. Sometimes you would think that they are human; expecting them to utter words at any moment. The more I read about them the more I realize that many of their “personality” traits are traits common to their breed. I have to believe though that Maggy was…

Sandaire’s Magnus CKC 2000-2012 He came to us at just 10 weeks old, and was named by the family “Magnus” because he was such a great dog.

We first saw her at a Rescue event in Grafton, OH in 2003. She was ‘Queen of the Sandpile’ hoarding the pile as her own, chasing and barking at all the big dogs to challenge her sandpile domain~once she chased off our Airedales we knew she was the girl for our house! We already had an in-ground…

It was a beautiful day in June of 2006. Our mission was to drive 1-1/-2 hours south of Chicago to pick up a 3-1/2 year old Airedale Terrier (from Kentucky) that was on her third transportation leg to her “forever” home – the Spencer household. The minute she jumped out of the transport van, she began…

When serious illness forced Baxter’s family to surrender him, Jim and Cheryl Arnold decided they would act as Baxter’s Aire-angels. The Arnold’s were without an Airedale and, lucky for Baxter, they decided to take this sweet boy into their family. He is adjusting well and enjoying his new life. Thanks to Lynn, Barbara, and Tom…

We’ve decided that “Belle” was not quite her, so we dignified her with Beatrice, which quickly became Bea, and quite often she’s our goofy Beazus!! She’s such a silly girl! She’s quite a large dog – nearly 90 pounds – and full of life and energy. Over the last 6 months (I can’t believe we’ve…

We continue to so enjoy and love our dear Bixby.
