Origins

The Airedale is the biggest of the terriers, which is why it’s referred to as the “King”. The first trial of developing this dog breed was in 1853. This was achieved by cross-breeding a black and tan terrier with an otterhound.

The result was a dog that turned out to be a great swimmer and adept at hunting large game. These crosses were given the names Waterside or Bingley Terriers. In the subsequent years, this breed became a popular sporting terrier.

In 1864, a dog show was held at Aire Valley. The Waterside Terrier was presented to compete in the broken-haired terriers division. During the competition, Hugh Dalziel described the dog as an “exceedingly good performer”. These remarks drew a lot of attention to the breed.

At around the same time, some fanciers decided to rename the breed the Airedale Terrier.

Initially, not everyone embraced this change, and this brought a lot of mayhem. So in the following dog shows, this dog went on to be called by either one of the three names. But in 1886, the Kennel Club of England approved Airedale Terrier to be the official name.

In 1890, Airedale Terriers were imported to Victoria, Australia. This was only four years after the breed’s official recognition in the UK. By the 1920’s, the number of Airedale breeders had grown steadily.

The first Airedale Terrier Championship was held in Victoria in 1931. It is at this point that the breed reached its peak in popularity, which has stayed on since.

Key Characteristics Of Airedale Terriers

Are Airedale Terriers Family-Friendly?

Though independent, Airedale Terriers enjoy being part of a family. They’re fond of kids and their owners.

Common Health Issues & Considerations

Airedale Terriers may suffer from:

Nature / Temperament

Loving, adaptable and courageous.

Suitable Environment

These dogs aren’t suitable for apartment living. Due to their large size and exercise needs, they need a large fenced yard.

Other Considerations

Brush their coat 3 times per week.

How can I take good care of my Airedale Terrier?

Nutrition

Airedale Terriers should be fed at least approximately twice a day. Puppies aged 2 – 8 months may benefit from a 3rd daily feeding.

When choosing dog food for your Airedale Terrier, stick to high-quality, proteinous diet. Avoid foods that contain wheat, rice, soy and corn.

Grooming

Airedale Terriers do not shed as badly as other breeds. Still, regular brushing is important as it keeps them clean and reduces shedding.

When combing their hair, examine them for parasites like fleas and ticks. They could be infested with these vermin especially during warm weather. Also, before giving them a bath, brush their coat and get rid of any mats.

Exercise

These terriers are high-energy dogs. As such, they need up to two hours of exercise each day. The best way to put their energy into use is to take them for a long walk. This exercise coupled with some playtime in the yard, will keep them happy and healthy.

Training

A common trait among terriers is their eagerness to please. But, the Airedale Terrier is not the easiest to train. These dogs are incredibly smart and quick learners, but they need a committed and patient trainer.
