Q. & A. with Rita

  • Why did you start breeding?

    A consistent love for the Airedale breed and dog training encouraged the beginning of Mystic’s Airedales! I regularly complete research and work with a mentor to develop and improve my breeding practices.
  • What makes your program special?

    My heart is in each and every puppy I raise. I devote myself to every litter! I expose puppies to sights and sounds and smells and watch their personalities develop! Matching a puppy with the right family is so rewarding! I enjoy watching, helping and bonding with my puppy parent families and watch the growth and progress with each puppy! I have a Facebook page where puppy parents share information, comments, questions, concerns, and photos. We also have a yearly Mystic’s Airedales Fur Kid Family Reunion
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

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

    They live in my home.
