Recent Pet News, Tips & Info...Choose the Airedale Terrier as a Pet and Say Good-Bye to Boredom“The King of the Terriers”, the Airedale terrier comes from Airedale, Yorkshire, England, and it is the largest of the terrier breeds. It comes from crossing the old and vanished breeds of the Black-and-Tan terrier with the Otterhound. It is also said that they have the Manchester terrier in their blood. They were initially bred to hunt otters (reason for which they are also called the Waterside Terrier) and hares in the valley of the Aire river - that also gave its name to the breed - and to herd sheep, being both shepherd and hunting dogs. The Africanis Dog From the South African Plains to Your Home Dog breeders do not officially recognize Africanis as a breed. Also known as the Bantu Dog or the Zulu Dog, the breed developed in South Africa and it is basically comprised of similar breeds that are originally from the area. However, dog historians have acquired enough evidence to conclude that, originally, the breed lived in the East and Middle East and migrated to Africa in ancient times. The Zulu Dog is a perfect companion for people, whether we are talking about more traditional activities like hunting or herding, or simply about the pleasure of having a dog companion. The Afghan Hound Elegance and Distinction If the old saying that claims that dogs and masters resemble each other is true, then the Afghan hound is surely the dog most likely to be seen in the presence of an aristocrat. Its silky, thick coat will match any of its masters' designer dresses or elegant suits. Distinguished in looks and personality, this is one of the breeds that you can't stop looking at when seeing on the street and that you are very likely to see at a dog show. The Aidi Dog A Perfect Watchdog Of Moroccan origin, the Aidi dog evolved as a watchdog for herds of goats and sheep. For this reason, it has heightened senses that are very good at detecting threats and its instincts are perfectly in tune, resulting in a speedy and efficient reaction. These characteristics are also perfect for a hunting dog - so it is also very good at filling that role. Very courageous, this breed has evolved in the Morrocan mountains, protecting itself and its owners from many vicious predators like wildcats, but also from strangers. Also called the Berber (it was commonly used by Berber tribes), this breed is very similar to Pariah dogs - to which it is believed to be related. |

The CRLNE rescues and receives Collies from many locations ranging from shelters, dog pounds, and humane organizations to family pets regretfully given up by their caring owners for reasons beyond their control. The condition and quality of the Collies we receive varies greatly from the neglected, abused, and forgotten to the well-kept and much-loved family member. However, all of our Collies (regardless of background) are carefully evaluated and provided with care in one of our foster homes with the ultimate goal of placement in a loving and responsible household which has been carefully selected based on the needs and habits of the individual dog. All of the homeless Collies we receive are groomed when turned-in, receive professional medical evaluation and attention, and undergo any treatment necessary to lead a normal life. Next they are placed in competent foster homes where they are evaluated for habits, likes and dislikes. Each Collie remains in its foster home until a suitable permanent home is located. Basic obedience and manners are taught when possible, and we do recommend post adoption obedience training in some cases. All Collies are neutered or spayed before placement and all are assigned a CRLNE file number. Anyone wishing to adopt a homeless Collie from the CRLNE is also evaluated. The prospective adopter is required to complete an adoption application which, if approved, is retained in an active file. When we have a Collie that matches the criteria sought by a prospective new owner, s/he is contacted and urged to meet the dog. The home is visited by a CRLNE representative. If both Collie and prospective new owner appear to accept each other, the dog will be transported to its new home by the League at a mutually convenient time and ownership will then be transferred. We do request an adoption fee which varies with the age of the dog. We also allow a one month adjustment period during which time a full refund of the adoption fee will be made if the dog is returned to the League. Usually, a wonderful new bond develops between a formerly homeless Collie and his new master! A new beginning; a new life!
