Hi, I'm new here!
« on: February 05, 2006, 01:41:10 pm »
Hello, my name is Muriel. I am companioned by 3 Airedale Terriers and one Lab-mix. The oldest, Jack, is a rescued 'dale and so is the middle 'dale, Duke. Duke is one of the larger ADTs, used to be called "oorang". Maggie is the girl 'dale and Sissy is the lab-mix. A friend and co-worker, amberdoggoneit, told me about this site, and I'm looking forward to meeting y'all. Anyone else out there have dales???

"oorang" refers to the larger strains of ADTs, they were popular back in the 1940s and 50s. Duke is descended from this kind of airedale, he weighs in at 80 pounds and is about 26 1/2 inches tall. The AKC standard calls for 'dales to be shorter and weigh about 55 pounds (males). But guess what?? I like BIG dogs!

Hi I'm Erin, I'm owned by a newf, Kali, and an aussie, Lacey.  I also have two horses and cats. I've heard Airedales are awesome dogs but I've never gotten to meet one.  I can't wait to see pics of all your furkids.

Hello and Welcome!  I'm Jacquie and my fur-kids are Tsu (11 yr old Chow), Sur Griffey da Spoiled(6 yr old big yellow mutt-kitty), and to be born this month...Khan (a fawn American Mastiff). 

I just ran across this site about a month ago and Jeff is right...this place is addictive! 

In "Anything Non-Dog Related" is a thread of BPO owners photos "(What Do We Look Like is what it is called-I think).  Totally fun to see what everyone looks like!   

Take care~Jacquie ;D

OOh yeah we want pictures of your dogs. ;D

I am Rebekah and I have lots of dogs here with me at my house. But it's ok 'cause I work at home as an artist so they are well supervised! Mostly mutts and a couple of Great Danes (one is a foster).

My pup Mokey is a mixed breed but her mama was an Airdale mix, so I suppose she is 1/4 Airdale! Does that count? You can't tell from looking at her, but her brothers have the wiry hair. Here is a picture of Mokey with her brother in the background, he belongs to a friend of mine.  :)
