Having grown up with many different dog breeds, my mother's Airedale Katie was always my favorite. When Jim and I married we got our first Airedale together and then another.  When Peanut Brittle died we were checking on line and found ATRA.  The rest, as they say, is history.  I have been a volunteer with ATRA for over 12 years now.  Currently I am the President of ATRA and also a member of the WATC.
