Caring for an Airedale Terrier

  • Maintenance: It is recommended to brush this coat daily and bathe once a month.
  • Brushing and grooming: It is good to brush this coat often and to always use products that do not damage the coat or skin of your Airedale.
  • Haircut: Keeping to the breed standard the coat is hand stripped all over keeping the legs fuller and longer as well as the well-known and discernable facial hair. In pet grooming this coat can be maintained with clippers and scissors instead.
  • Special Attention: Pay special attention to maintaining good ear hygiene to prevent infections or dirt build up which could cause irritations. 
  • Recommended Grooming Appointments: You should groom this dog every 8 weeks minimum with a proper maintenance bath in between to care properly for the health of the coat and skin.
