    Have you seen Dobby the Airedale???

    I love this dog!

    Amazing dog and I love this competition! How fun!

    From what I understand this is an FCI competition in Poland? I could be totally wrong about that.

    This is so what I want from my dog (or something close) and that's probably why we'll never make it into the ring. LOL!

    Look at how happy he is performing these tasks! Looks like an obedience competition/training.

    FCI stands for Federation Cinologique Internationale, like AKC in the US. They may be organizing it, but this is definitely not a conformation show.

    Good video, thanks.
    I noticed she didn't choose a Lab, likely lose points when he stops and jumps on the judges,or continues to run around the arena with the ball instead of bringing it back.

    Labs are one of or the most popular dogs for obedience -- at least in the US -- and while this Airedale is spectacular, the breed isn't exactly known for their outstanding performances -- again, not in the US, anyway -- like Labs and especially Goldens.

    Yes... I've heard that Airedales, well... they are the largest terriers, if I have that right. And terriers are kinda known for being a bit on the non-compliant side. We are so spoiled with Labs.

    But that dog is having a blast and it shows.

    Is that why we hire trainers and dog psychiatrists?
    Look at all the posts here, month after month it goes on.
    I've had other breeds also.

    Take a look at the AKC show results if you don't believe me.

    That looks like so much fun! And the owner didn't even have a pork chop tied around her neck to hold his attention!
