GRACIE
Gracie was one of the Arizona 19. Click

to read more about her.
We're all doing great; settled into Seattle now. Gracie still doesn't
like the rain but her little raincoat helps. You can't imagine how fast
she can "go" when it's dark, cold and rainy out... she is a dog with a
purpose & beats us back to the house. People stop us all the time to comment
on her beauty and those that know terriers, guess she is an Airedale but have never seen a Black Airedale.
The correct coat color of an Airedale Terrier is a black saddle, with a tan head,
ears and legs; or a dark grizzle saddle (black mixed with gray and white).
Both are acceptable in the AKC breed standard.
Because each volunteer must use their own funds when they rescue a mix, volunteers are
only able to provide limited assistance to any dog considered an Airedale mix,
including "red" and "black" Airedales. Those of us who have had personal contact
with the red and black Airedales know that other than their color, they are pure
Airedale in temperament, conformation and even non-shedding. They make great
companions and, if we could, we would help every dog that needs a new home.
