About the Airedale Terrier

The Airedale Terrier is a large dog breed originating in England. Adult dogs typically weigh 45 to 70 pounds and live 11 to 14 years. The breed is described as confident, intelligent, energetic, independent.

Active, experienced households that enjoy training. The "King of Terriers" is large, smart, and needs a job. Sedentary owners, homes with free-roaming small pets, or those unwilling to keep up with grooming.

Adult Airedale Terriers need about 75 minutes of daily exercise; adolescent dogs typically need 90 minutes. The coat is wire-coated with low shedding, and weekly brushing keeps the coat manageable.
