Airedales Rock!

Sometimes, they literally rock. And roll. They are the most happy go lucky, hail fellow well met, best friend forever, stay the heck away from my treat dogs you'll ever meet. But they aren't a perfect dog for every family. ARC exists to help rescued Airedales in Alabama find and get to their forever homes.

Animal lovers are notorious for falling in love with movie dogs, dogs in commercials, dogs that win Best in Show, and dogs that look: a) cute; b) unusual; c) handsome; d) regal. Too many pet owners don't research the breed of dog they've fallen for, to be sure they will be fit companions for each other. The result is that millions of great dogs end up in shelters through no fault of their own.

Although they are known for being hyperactive, boisterous, stubborn and demanding, Airedales can be terrific canine companions for people who appreciate challenges and humor and sarcasm in their canines. Airedales are thinking dogs, and they expect their humans to be thinkers, too. Being in synch with an Airedale Terrier is a delightful experience beyond description.

If you've known other terrier-ists but never met an Airedale... well, it's kind of like a Jack Russell Terrier put into a 55 pound or bigger body. Definitely not a dog for a meek, mild human or for a human who doesn't want a committed relationship. Definitely NOT.
