He loves people and children but not cats. Chewie is used to going to the office with his previous owner and so he loves being with people but he does not fuss when left home for a time. He has been known to surf the kitchen counters for unauthorized treats, so take appropriate precautions! An active family with teenagers would work well for him. He needs plenty of exercise daily.  Ideally, he should be in a home where someone is at home or can take him along to work. Chewie's new owner must be prepared to continue his obedience work with a good trainer. His training has been a constant in his previous home and will be a bonding influence with his new owner. If you would like more information on Chewie, please be sure you have an application in at www.nwairedalerescue.org and, please email over pictures of the front and back of your home showing fencing if able to.  Please note or let us know that you are interested in Chewie. Connie Turner is Chewie's main contact at 503 399 9819; cturner859@aol.com.  As always with an Airedale Terrier, a securely fenced yard along with lots of time to spend with your Airedale is a must.
