SOAR understands that it may not always be possible for owners to provide for their dogs in dire situations such as illness, job loss, relocation, etc.  It is never an easy decision to relinquish your dog, no matter what the circumstances.

If you would like to talk with us about solutions to help you keep your Airedale, we may be able to point you in the right direction for resources.   Many problems can be corrected with proper training, patience and knowledge.

If finances are an issue, there are some organizations that provide financial assistance for families unable to pay for large veterinary expenses and the like.

If all else fails and there is no other choice, let us help you find the perfect home for your beloved Airedale.  Your Airedale will be placed in a loving, family environment with all the comforts of home until he/she is adopted.  We screen all our applicants and you can be rest assured that we will do our best to provide a new forever home for your Airedale. 

To surrender your Airedale, you can contact the nearest state coordinator.

You can expedite your relinquishment by completing the Intake Profile and the Rescue Release (both in PDF format) and mailing or faxing them to us.  The Intake Profile helps us by letting you tell us as much as you can about your Airedale.  The Rescue Release is the legal document that transfers ownership of your Airedale to SOAR.
