Does anyone know a groomer familiar with Airedales in Maryland?

Interested in following some pages or people who have Airedale’s in California. Thank you for the info!

Hi all, new to the group and wanted to share a little image i whipped up as a possible Christmas card design. My partner and I have two Airedales and this was supposed to be them in a winter scene. Hope it brings some smiles to everyone like your pictures and stories do!

We're winding down the winter season (or it feels that way) so might seem a bit late. Better late than never, I guess!

So our 2 year old Dale split his nail and needed a cut back and I had my first experience filing a claim. Our monthly is about $100 (signed him up at 6 months) and our deductible is still quite high at $685! After all was said and done, I did not receive any coverage ($1.07 short of deductible).

My question for the Airedale owners, in your experiences is Pet Insurance worth it?

Our Welshy growing up had Hypothyroidism so while this experience has me wanting to cancel I’m nervous to PLUS the next manicure is FREE lol

Bed head!

Dear Ma & Pa

I learned to use the doggie door all on my own. Yes I was outside. Yes those are leaves in my fuzz. There are also a trail of leaves that I brought in for you. You really should get out there and get those cleaned up.

Love … Milli

My girl will just walk into the shower when the door is open and sit there. This is my first ever dog I’ve owned and I was always under the impression that they hated baths. Habibah can’t seem to get enough of them though lol

My dog unwrapped a Kirtland golf ball and I can’t find the core of what’s inside. I’m worried he swallowed it. I gave him peroxide about an hour after the incident and threw up some old food. He is acting fine im going crazy looking for it hoping he didn’t swallow it.

SO, I am a longterm airedale owner and fan. My family has been keeping dales for 30 some years now.
We just lost our last furbaby after a grueling year of unhinged health issues. (Y'all ever hear/deal with IMHA oml) The fight in my house has already begun - what we are keeping of Chomp's, what we're getting rid of, when we'll be getting another pup. (The IF very rapidly became When since this is the first time in 20 years there's not been a dog in the house heh). Chomp was a great dog, so much personality but my mother accidentally obtained him from what I am pretty sure was a puppy mill. He always had some weird health issues and behavioural issues and since we had no idea about his parents or anything He was HUGE. 122lbs at his heaviest and almost 30 inches at the shoulder Absolute unit of a Dale. We've always liked the Oorang type dales but we're now an household of 3 women, one retired and low mobility, one chronically ill/disabled and one now with lingering issues from a work injury.
We are more than capable of handling a young dale. Chomp was still very active and strong even at the end but I was hoping for tips(or rec of breeders/kennels) on finding a decent breeder that isn't a puppy mill and ideally finding a bloodline that is going to give pups that grow into a more standard sized Dale (more on the 50-80lb end of the spectrum than the 80-120lb end you know). Having a giant dog is great until he blows out a leg and you can't lift him into the house or car to go to the vet effectively...

Baby Chomp for Tax

We're near pittsburgh PA so definitely Oorang/hunting dale territory but I feel like if I can identify some breeders I can steer my family away from an unwise impulse purchase especially from a sketchy breeder and ideally also head off having a dog that is twice the size we expected and all the myriad consequences of that.
Sorry about the rambly post the whole situation has just been a lot.

After a hard play session in the snow my full grown Airedale likes to get in my beagle’s crate

We've had this wonderful boy for 10 months now. He has visited 7 countries and given us countless bites and laughs. First Airedale but i've had two Welsh terriers. He'll be getting a Welsh sister in a year or so.

Hey Airedale gang I recently got an adorable puppy 2.5 weeks ago she’s now 10 weeks old.

She’s always been a little playful and bitey but in the last two days the biting has become REALLY aggressive

She also used to enjoy being held and picked up now she’s starting to growl.

She has no other symptoms of anything, maybe she is straining a little more with her poops but her poops are still looking healthy.

She is also biting her back left foot a lot, she fell while walking and looked like she twisted it but hasn’t been limping, only biting it when she lays down (more than normal)

Idk if she’s in pain and being extra grouchy or if it’s something else. Any tips would be appreciated.
