airedale Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 (edited) In central NY, Airedale puppies out of old time hunting stock, properly trained this breed can be very versatile and suitable for both fur and feather hunting and also make first class family-companions. They are AKC registered and have had their shots and have been wormed and ready to go. They are 350.00. For the folks that are not familiar about this breed here is a link showing how these dogs are used throughout the USA and Canada and the pups for sale are directly related to most of the Airedale seen here. http://huntingwithairedales.blogspot.com/2011/04/hunting-airedales-in-action.html http://huntingwithairedales.blogspot.com/2014/03/hunting-airedales-in-action-2.html For anyone that may be interested they can contact me here through a pm here or an email to [email protected] and I will get back to you.

BKhunter Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I think in the UK they use these as their police dogs also no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airedale Posted October 10, 2014 Author Share Posted October 10, 2014 I think in the UK they use these as their police dogs also no? The British tried using them as Police dogs but for the most part they were and are not suited for the job, Airedales are "people dogs" in that they love people. Like most other Police forces that use dogs the British switched to the herding breeds which are the favorites and are far and away the best breeds for that kind of work. During WW1 Airedales were extensively used as "War Dogs" jobs included helping locate the dead and wounded soldiers, also as sentinels, and many as messenger dogs.

Al Kranbuhl Al, do these dogs have the capability to learn antler hunting or blood trailing for deer? What size are the grown adults for your line?

Pygmy Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 My family had an airedale as a house pet when I was a kid. She was a great dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airedale Posted October 10, 2014 Author Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) As far as antler hunting I have heard of at least one person using an Airedale, don't know much about this activity myself but I would say with proper training they should be able to do it. I can tell you that one of my own yard dogs has a couple of time found old antlers on his own and brought them home. There are several people on the Traditional Working Airedale message board that use Airedales successfully for recovering deer, so I know they can perform that task well. I believe there are a couple of photos in the links posted showing some Airedales with deer they recovered. There was a time when I did quite a bit of varmint hunting using calls and had several instances where my Airedales tracked up both Coyote and Fox for me. My Airedales are midsized with the females averaging in the sixty pound area give or take a few pounds, the males a bit more.

InkedLilPiggy Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Beautiful dogs. Would love to have one for pheasant and rabbit hunting. Not sure the wife will go for it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
