Red Airedale Terrier

Red Airedale Terrier

Do you remember the first Ford automobiles that were produced? You could have any color you want as long as it was black! Well, many people believe the Airedale Terrier is just black and tan. Actually, there are all-black Airedales ( view my video of a black Airedale( https://www.airedale-terriers-oorang.com/airedale-terriers/black-airedale-terrier.html ) and also red Airedales!

As I said before, having owned three black and tan Airedales I’m partial toward the traditional coloring. But, with that said, and even with the fact that the AKC does not recognize the red or the black Airedale, I don’t see why if someone wants one of these Airedales they shouldn’t have one. After all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

Plus, I really think the main attraction of the Airedale is not the coloring so much as it is the personality and traits of the breed itself.

Of all the Airedales I saw at this breeders facility, Eric the red Airedale was not only one of the largest Airedales there, he had the standard fun-loving, happy demeanor as is common with all the Airedale terriers. Also, just look at his face in the video, how can you not love this big fun-loving animal? Read more

Black Airedale Terrier

The black Airedale Terrier

Quite a few local Airedale Terrier owners that I’ve talked to here in San Diego, didn’t seem to realize that there was an all black Airedale Terrier. But, the reality is that they have been around for quite some time. Although not recognized by the AKC, through registration into their system, the fact remains that they exist and have exactly the same characteristics as the standard black and tan Airedales.  Black Airedale Terrier *CORRECTION to video -The breeder has been breeding Airedales for 33 years!

So, if you love Airedale Terriers, and can appreciate and all black Airedale Terrier, you definitely have an opportunity to stand out from the crowd by owning one of these fun-loving intelligent animals. Read more

Best Dog Hikes San Diego

Best Dog Hikes San Diego

San Diego best dog trails – Cowles Mountain is at the Eastern side of the city of San Diego, it borders La Mesa and Santee.

The main trail starts at the corner of Navajo Rd, and Golfcreast Dr.. This is a very popular and busy trail. Because it’s narrow, I would NOT recommend it with the dog, because you always end up pulling the dog over so people can get by. Plus, if you’re like me and you looking for little serenity on the trail this front trail is not for you because of all the people and even little kids it’s very noisy.

The Barker Way Trail on the east side of the mountain is really a much better trail for enjoying your hike, and the only trail I would recommend for taking your dog.

The one-way distance from the trailhead, which is right off Parker Way, is 1.6 miles. The parks department rates this trail as moderate. It takes me, about 45 to 55 minutes to get to the summit. Read more
