My 15 year old Airedale. What a beast

They're beasts alright.

Albert Payson Terhune wrote of the Airedale: "Among the mine-pits of the Aire, the various groups of miners each sought to develop a dog which could outfight and outhunt and outthink the other miner's dogs. Tests of the first-named virtues were made in inter-mine dog fights. Bit by bit, thus, an active, strong, heroic, compactly graceful and clever dog was evolved – the earliest true form of the Airedale. He is swift, formidable, graceful, big of brain, an ideal chum and guard. ....To his master he is an adoring pal. To marauders he is a destructive lightning bolt."

Terriers are evil smart, but need to be trained.

A lot must show up at Lost Dogs home becuase people think JR and Foxiers are cute toy dogs.

My Dad's Airedale had to be destroyed after it went two people, but it didn't have a problem handling the Doberman or German Shepherd it thought it was going my old man. The other breed of dog bolted home after it saw the Airedale own it's mate.

A terrier that size would be a handful.

Used to roam for miles after jumping the fence.

Oh wow sounds like he was a very protective dog. Mine has been quite the opposite, he was the outcast of the litter and also the 'fat' one of the litter. With Airedales people tend to look for the show dog in the litter whereas I knew instantly I wanted him. He is an incredibly placid dog, never attacked another dog or a human, he does like to hump any dog though haha.

Couldn't recommend an Airedale highly enough, they are so loyal and they run all day. He had paddocks to run through and rabbits to chase growing up and he'd be gone for hours with his nose to the ground on the hunt. Very independant too, would much rather spend time sniffing and hunting than interact with other dogs, loves attention and in my exerience are one of the easiest dogs to train, pick things up pretty quickly! Surprisingly good with kids too, just need to make sure you train them so they don't jump up on people otherwise not so good

My beautiful Rottie, Abbey (1999-2011). I miss her more every day.

What a beauty!

My woofers, Dalmations are now 10 and 11 and I'm enjoying them every day. Not scared of thunder storms, fire works or cyclones but when I yell at the footy on TV - ouch!!!

It's the 'what are you looking at' face. They're up to something.

More like the "gimme more of them there treats if you want to take our photo" faces!!!

It's true, never work with dogs or little kids if you want to take their picture unless they are asleep!!

Loooooves chicken, and enjoys getting patted. Loves a tummy rub and getting scratched behind the ears, although I guess most dogs enjoy that.

Yeah both in looks and nature, so good with my 18 month old daughter and clever as **** too

This is my boy Petey. He used to know a lot of tricks. Not anymore. Now, he will roll over with a little encouragement. Oh, and he plays dead like a champ.

He loves the beach by the looks of things, look at him, all relaxed and not a care in the world

I've had five dogs during my lifetime, all of whom have long since passed on, but I thought I'd contribute with an old photo of a couple of them anyway:

Airedale Terriers Heathcliff (foreground) and Cathy, named after the main characters from Wuthering Heights, along with a 3-year-old me, circa 1991.

Beautiful! I also have an English x American Staffy. 7 month old boy named Harvey

As with yours, you may notice he's always on the couch!

But I suppose it gets like that when some arseh*le steals your house!
