one of my first two hog dogs about 36 or so years back was a little female airedale.short distance, very gritty but had a bite that couldnt break eggs,lol. over the years ive owned and or hunted behind tons of dogs with varying degrees of airedale in em. i like the airedale crosses but i think irish terrier is grittier than the airedale blood .

I ran more than a few years ago and they are very powerful dogs...have plenty of grit but they are not true catch dogs and not the best strike dogs either...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog... A hunting dog is born not made...

I used one to fight coyotes with the greyhounds. I bought him from a lady in hugh springs tx. She called me awhile back and had four for sale a little over a year old. Those dogs are really tuff as long as you stay away from the ones bred for show.

I was thinking on a Plott / Airedale. Cross? Any one have luck with this ? I heard of a bear hunter that did . His ran silent , treed quick , and the bear stayed tree.
I want to hush the Plott but not dilute the hunt that they have . A touch more grit but not too catchy . Any words of wisdom would b greatly appreciated .
