Bighen

Bighen, Airedale terrier, Elkins Park, PA, serves Montgomery County and the Philadelphia area. Steve Barrett has been breeding Airedale terrier for years, maintains breed club memberships, and ensures each dog undergoes health screening for hip dysplasia and cardiac conditions.

Puppies are raised indoors with daily access to a secure yard and introduced to household sights and sounds from the first weeks. They begin a transition to solid food around three weeks and stay with their mother until about eight weeks of age. Socialization outings and basic training help them adapt to family life. Adult dogs live indoors and enjoy supervised outdoor exercise on a small rural property with shaded running areas. Routine veterinary care and balanced nutrition are core to the breeder’s philosophy.

These Airedale terrier often show an even temperament and excel in obedience and agility events, reflecting a thoughtful approach to breeding and early life experiences.
