How Much Exercise Does an Airedale Need?

Airedale Terriers are an active and energetic breed that requires regular exercise to stay healthy and happy. On average, they need about 1 to 2 hours of exercise per day. This can include activities such as:

  • Brisk Walks: Airedales enjoy brisk walks to help burn off energy.

  • Playtime: Engage them in interactive play sessions with toys like fetch or tug-of-war.

  • Mental Stimulation: Provide mental stimulation through puzzle toys, obedience training, or agility exercises.

  • Outdoor Adventures: Airedales thrive on outdoor adventures like hiking and exploring.

  • Swimming: Many Airedales enjoy swimming, which is an excellent way to exercise and cool off.



Why Does My Airedale Pant So Much?

Panting is a common behaviour in dogs and serves various purposes, including:

  • Cooling Down: Dogs pant to regulate their body temperature, especially when they are hot or have been active.

  • Stress or Anxiety: Panting can also be a sign of stress or anxiety. If your Airedale is panting excessively in non-stressful situations, consult with a veterinarian to rule out any underlying health issues.

  • Excitement: Some dogs pant when they are excited or anticipating something fun, like a walk or playtime.
