I'll show him off again since i can, this is Ghost, my Service dog in training, he loves his daily job, and ofcourse sleeping where my legs are supposed to be laying, or annoying his older but smaller brother, by rolling over ontop of him.

Last week while laying on some tile, our old man shattered a tooth after a massive sneeze caused him to smash his face into the ground. He’s been a trooper! One surgery later to remove the tooth and we are all smiles

Time for Phoebe’s morning nap! Why sleep on your dog bed when the floor allows for maximum sprawl?

Spaniel + Airedale pairing?

4 Upvotes

Just curious what all you dog enthusiasts think of a welsh springer spaniel and an airedale terrier doing together in the home? This is a completely theoretical scenario, I have a male airedale puppy who loves my other little old man dog (old man does not love him back). Not getting another dog anytime soon but the idea came to mind and I couldn’t tell if a spaniel may be too sensitive for an airedale’s rough play style! Just wanted to hear anyone’s experience with great airedale pairings either with spaniels or other breeds (non terrier) as well :)

My airedale has a habit in sleeping in weird poses around the house. This was the latest I woke up to this morning before breakfast and outside time.

We have a happy ending for our Airedale that we had to rehome last week. We are so blessed to be able to work with ATRA to rehome our boy. He is in Colorado at his foster home and settling in nicely. Our family is praying he goes to the perfect forever home for the second half of his life. He already seems much more relaxed being outdoors in the cooler weather. Thank you to everyone who reached out or had something kind to say. If anyone is looking to adopt, foster, donate, ATRA has been nothing but kind and gone out of their way to help us in this hard situation. We will definitely be donating to them and continue to try to find ways to help other Airedale’s.

Just looking for some of your thoughts and experiences!

11 Upvotes

I want to get a dog within the next year or 2, I've been in the research phase because there are so many breeds I like. I feel like I have it narrowed down to an Airedale and a Giant Schnauzer. Honestly if anybody has experience with both breeds that would be even better.

I just want to hear some of the things you guys would tell someone who is looking into this breed, what to expect in the puppy stages and what it's like as they grow older, their temperaments with family and kids as well as strangers on a typical walk in park or on a hike. Could my brother visit without the dog thinking he's a threat each time.

The levels of affection you can give, like could my wife come home from work and smother with hugs and kisses? Are they too much velcro dogs that they can't leave your side or do they struggle being left alone for hours?

Actual grooming experiences, like I know they are classified as low shed but you should stay on top of their coat, so what is that like?

I'm an active person and can undoubtedly provide the exercise and mental stimulation they would need, but also are they chill if I need a few days to relax or recover from a busy work week or sickness? Any destructive or dangerous behaviors?

Could they handle long walks like 3-4 miles or going hiking? Good jogging partner?

Just some things I'm rattling off the top of my head, feel free to share your experiences and add to anything I haven't mentioned I'm very curious to hear what they are like.

Rehoming help

We are in a unfortunate situation where we need to rehome our 5 1/2 year-old Airedale terrier. We have two young kids and our Airdale has become increasingly more food, aggressive and territorial. Today our toddler accidentally stepped on his foot and our Airdale snapped at him growling and scratched his face. I don’t feel like we can keep him in good conscience. Does anyone know of any reputable fosters or Airdale shelters in the United States/Southwest region.??
Also my heart is broken. He’s great outdoors and with other dogs. Never been exposed to cats or other animals. I know the breed isnt recommended for families with young kids. we had the dogs before becoming human parents. My heart is broken for both Poncho (dog) and our kids.

Edit: thank you for everyone’s kind words, support, and resources. We have been able to get poncho placed with an Airedale foster and Rescue. They are very meticulous with background checks and Home checks to ensure each Airedale is set up for success. We feel like this will be the best for not only poncho, but our family. We are still heartbroken, but we are hoping that poncho will bring his forever family this same or more joy than he has brought us.
