The Airedale Terrier - Hardcover

by William Haynes (Author)

The largest of the terriers, the Airedale - King of Terriers - was bred in the Aire valley of Yorkshire as a versatile working dog. In The Airedale Terrier, William Haynes sets down what every owner and breeder should know of the breed.

First published in 1911, William Haynes's account sets the Airedale Terrier's history and origins alongside guidance on its points and standard, its character, and the everyday work of rearing, feeding and preparing a dog for the show ring.

Long scarce in its original edition, it returns here in a faithful modern reprint for Airedale Terrier owners, breeders and breed historians.

This edition features:

• Traces the origins and history of the Airedale Terrier.
• Sets out the breed's points, character and show standard.
• Practical notes on rearing, feeding, breeding and management.
• Restored from the original text and illustrations.
