  Click on each and every block to see it up close and read about the talented quilter and artist who created it. Then click on the “Order Tickets” button and help us rescue more Airedales and find them “forever homes”.

  The drawing is at the Airedale Terrier Club of America National Specialty, which is held in conjunction with the Montgomery Kennel Club Specialty weekend.  You do not have to be there to win.  Tickets for the draw are sold through the internet, by mail, and at Airedale events throughout the summer. 

  The money raised is sent to the ATCA Rescue and Adoption Committee for distribution to rescue groups as needed, to be used exclusively in assisting, rescuing and rehoming Airedales in need. The funds are used to reimburse Airedale rescue volunteers for the funds they spend to spring Airedales from shelters, to pay for veterinary care (testing for heartworm, bringing the dog up to date on vaccinations, spaying or neutering and pre-existing conditions), to board rescues when there are no foster homes available and for expert grooming in cases of disastrous neglect, as well as other expenses that are incurred by the rescue workers to help rehome these less fortunate Airedales.

  Volunteers donate the cost of gas, food, telephone calls, their time, and naturally, our foster parents are also volunteers.

  Your support through the purchase of tickets helps make Airedale Rescue possible.

  The Airedale Terrier Quilting Bee is an online community of Airedale lovers who have banded together, sharing their love of Airedales to make these masterpieces.  The entire project is conducted online - many of us have never met, and probably never will.  We live as far north as the Yukon Territory in Canada, as far south as Florida, from the Atlantic, to the Pacific coasts.  We communicate via a mailing list, and keep the quilter's website for our project reference material.
