Meet the breeder

I'm Ashley L., the breeder behind Aim High Airedales & German Shorthaired Pointers located in Branch, MI. At Aim High we are dedication to following a responsible breeding program. Our goal is to produce superb Airedale Terriers & German Shorthaired Pointers with sound temperaments and outstanding health for families and competition that adhere to and exceed the breed standard.

Q. & A. with Ashley

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Ashley has been raising Airedales for over a decade. The love of the breed all began with the need for a protective, loyal companion for her Pomeranian - Bonsai. Her first airedale did just that and there's been no looking back ever since.
  • What makes your program special?

    All of our adults are health tested through the OFA (orthopedic foundation for animals) prior to breeding. Puppies are temperament tested prior to placement using the Volhard Puppy Aptitude Test. All of our airedales are raised in our home with our family. They are raised utilizing Jane Killon's Puppy Culture to create a well balanced, confident dog through all stages of development.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Airedale Terrier puppies are black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
