Breed Review: Airedale Terrier (17 Pics)

#13 Caring for the ears of Airedale terriers is standard, but you will have to tinker with the puppies, since the formation of the correct set of the ear canal is a painstaking business.

For this reason, in the first months of life, babies' ears are glued to the head until they take the desired position. In addition, the ear cartilages of young Airedales need a daily massage of 3-5 minutes. For adults, the ear funnels are cleaned of wax and impurities, but they are no longer massaged.

#14 Make it a rule to look in your mouth once a week to check the whiteness of your Airedale’s teeth.

If the enamel starts to turn yellow, try cleaning off the plaque with a silicone nozzle sprinkled with crushed chalk or zoo. Eye examinations are performed daily, but you should not run after the dog with a napkin every day. It is enough to walk with a damp cloth on the mucous membrane of the eyelid once a week. An area of special attention is the barbs of the Airedale terriers. While eating, they get wet, crumbs get stuck in them, which adore all kinds of bacteria. To avoid the appearance of fungus and an unpleasant odor, the hair on the dog's chin and the muzzle are wiped after each meal. Watch for the growth of the hairs that frame the dog's lips. If they are too long, it is better to shorten them so that they do not stick together in bunches and do not form seizures.

#15 Like other breeds, Airedale Terriers are fed either “dry” or “natural”.

The choice of the type of feeding is a matter of personal preferences of the owner, his employment, and financial capabilities. The natural menu of the Airedale does not include any special exotic products. Everything is like most dogs: raw lean meat every day; once a week, sea fish with previously removed bones; salads of beets, carrots, cabbage, cucumber, and pumpkin - every day, but in moderation.
