Is it true that Airedales don't shed?
SouthWest Airedale Terrier Rescue Frequently Asked Questions...Yes and no. Rather than losing and regrowing hair throughout the year, Airedale hair will grow to a certain length and then "blow," with it all coming out at one time. As long as you keep your Airedale well brushed and clipped, very little hair will end up in your house. HOWEVER, if your goal is to own a dog AND have a pristine yard and house, that will be very difficult with an Airedale. Airedale beards can carry quarts of water. Airedales love to dig and stick their heads into holes.
