He has some medical issues but we’re dealing. He can definitely take me out if he wanted to but he’s mostly very sweet and pretty well trained with us.

​@@megb4613 Back in the day I bought a duckling for Easter. I know, but had the property to care for it. When my Dad said the duck was too big to stay inside in a box anymore, I had to teach the dog not to be rough with it. So I had a talk with the really good airedale. I told her it would "break!" She understood that meant delicate. Finally she decided it wouldn't break if she just sniffed it. The duckling saw the giant airdale nose approaching and honked it. 😳 I think the dog did a double back flip!!!! I got the dirtiest look from the dog. "You told me it would break!" 😡 They were best friends until the duck died. (In it's sleep from overweight.) When the duck built her nest, it was next to the dog's bed in a storage shed. Best dog ever.

My late one was less of a terror and more of just a certified silly goose. But, then again, we adopted him when he was about 8. He was such a sweet and loving boy all the years we had him. I'd adopt another Carin in a heartbeat.

I'm so glad that you finally uploaded a video of the dog that I grew up with. You're absolutely right about their characteristics; stubborn, independent, but also fiercely loyal dogs. My Dee Dee is no longer with us now but I do still think of her most days. I'm definitely going to have another Airedale in the future (and the hand stripping is a worthy compromise).

THIS IS THE DAY I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR! I have an Airedale Terrier and I was hoping you would do a video with one! I rescued my boy when he was 1.5 years old so he was never introduced to the groomer properly so we have had to do extensive training to help him and his groomer have a more pleasant experience! He is my clever handsome boy!❤

Cute, but just soooo wrong.

16 years passed by, and I still miss my Princess Galaxy, thank you for grooming an Airedale finally. They are one of a kind

My dad had one of those when I was a kid in Alaska. Best dog ever!! He kept bears away from the house.

Vanessa thank you so much for featuring an Airedale! I have wondered if I missed a video on one somewhere and I have to say, thank you SO MUCH for shaving him. I have been an Airedale parent for 18 years now and I groom mine myself. The shaving is frowned upon as they’re supposed to be hand stripped but that just takes forever. He looks gorgeous! And his ears…again, frowned upon if they don’t fold according to the breed standard but my most intelligent Airedale, Zimri, who died in 2020, had ears like that and they just told you better than words what he was feeling. Love this beautiful boy!

It's obvious he is one smart cookie! And a cutie!

We got an Airedale/Beagle mix without knowing anything bout Airedales to begin with (never heard of them) and she turned out to be the most atypical dog I've ever known. It's absolutely hilarious when you know the dog knows exactly what you want from it, but they flippantly don't care to please you. It's been the most wonderful and hilarious ride for the last 16 years, but it takes a very certain person to deal with their natural disposition. A super rewarding relationship, but definitely not built for everyone.

We have a beagle terrier mix as well. Rat we think. She’s got the leggy legs and kind of shape face of a rat but everything else is beagle. Including ears. And we got both personalities and IQ. You can see her evaluating if she’s going to do what you want. You can see her evaluating if the treat is worth whatever you want her to do (or stop doing). Picks up stuff quickly but is too excited and food driven to actually do it. There’s the beagle. She’s a daddy’s girl and I’m the disciplinarian. So she goes and runs to him when I try. I am not sure what kind of life we have now but boy is it not the one we had three years ago before we got her! 😂🐶🐕

@@CarolinaGypsyhaha it's a hell of a ride. absolutely the ethos of "what's in it for me?" She even ignores other dogs in favor of humans because she knows that dogs can't give her anything to eat and throughout her whole life, she's constantly tested the fences. When my now-wife moved in, oh boy did my dog have fun with her. My wife had no resistance so my dog would just harass her all day long and wear her down lol On the flip side, the dog has a super sweet side and always checks on where everyone is. Always quiet despite being part beagle and even in her senior age still prioritizes play over everything else.

What a great boy that Terrier! He is a perfect medium size! Not too big and not too small 😊❤

Oh my what an adorable, beautiful, and well behaved dog.

He was so well behaved! An energetic boy who knows grooming is time to be chill. Thank you for sharing!!

I've had three rescued Airedales over the years. The current one, Katie, looks very much like this sweet boy, save that her tail is stubbed off and she has a lop ear. Best dogs ever.

He is adorable 😍 And such a good boy!

Ty for inspiring me to give and volunteer more with our local shelters. Such a beautiful fur baby ❤

He's beautiful and actually does look like a fuzzy teddy bear! 🧸

So well behaved! What a good boy and such a cutie. I love the wiggly ears at the end.

My neighbor had one of these named Bruce and he was a great family pet. He was playful but also patient with my neighbor and I. And let's be honest, we were more terrors than he was. We would put blankets around his neck as a cape, sunglasses and hats on his head and my neighbor could pick him up and move him places without him saying anything. He was such a sweetheart and just put up with all of it

I had two Airedales growing up. They are a wonderful breed of dog! This reminded me of them so much, especially since my mom is a dog groomer like you. This video definitely brought me some childhood nostalgia today. Thank you!
