Picture of Molly, the Airedale TerrierMolly

I will be 7 on 1st November 2007

Richard describes me as a tri coloured quadruped. Personally, I like Airedale. I answer to Molly, Mollywolly, Woolly Bonce, The Mozza, Molly woo, Mozz, Mozzi Moo and some other unprintable names **%$£**. I’m pretty easy going with a great sense of humour and adventure, and I do like practical jokes. I’m a sociable gal who likes to get out and about and I like the attention I seem to attract. I like to take care of my appearance, I ask Linda to give me a quick trim around the edges and to get rid of any rare split ends, she does an Airedale proud! I keep fit with lots of walks, some hill climbing and some home based work outs/punch ups/wrestling with Richard, Harry and Dylan. Of course, I win every time although the blokes will never admit it, I outsmart and outthink them with comparative ease! I do enjoy taking life at a relaxing pace when I can. On the racier side of things I love to drive fast cars, chase jets and air balloons. My honey is Justice, he is 7 years old and lives in Harvey's Lake, USA, we've been together for more than 4 years now. He is a hunk!

My home is in North Wales with Richard and Linda, Harry and Dylan.  We moved to North Wales from South Devon in August 05We love our location and we have our very own field to run around in, it's on a hill so we get plenty aerobic exercise running up to the top and chasing pheasants who lurk around the place.  We also have our very own Spring so we only drink pure, natural spring water. We all love North Wales, it is very beautiful herewe are nestled in the stunning Ceiriog Valleysurrounded by some the best scenery in Wales. It is great to get up out of bed in the morning and get out for a walk in the lovely fresh air.  We have sooo many walks around here, it never gets boring and we absolutely love all the exercise, getting out in the fresh air and soaking up the beautiful scenery.

Horoscope

I’m a Scorpio. My horoscope says I am a warm hearted individual (of course, I'm an Airedale!), endowed with a sense of humour (of course, I'm an Airedale!) and fun with a natural ability to liven up any gatherings (need I say more, I'm an Airedale!).  I also have a stubborn streak (Nooooooo, never, Moi???) and can be quite dominant( AKA Miss Bossy Drawers according to Harry & Dylan!) – basically, I try to get away with lots of things but I’m frequently caught out!  I’m also considered to be determined (I'm an Airedale!), goal orientated and very focussed.  I’d say my biggest asset has to be my sense of fun and adventure! I love a good laugh and never miss out on an opportunity. I get a real giggle if I creep up on Richard and give him a big nose poke, it's a great way to wake him up in the mornings!

Food

I have a healthy appetite and tend to eat most foods. I don't do dog tinned food, thankfully I'm never insulted and offered this rubbish.  I am grateful Richard and Linda understand this and don't force it on meMy staple diet is a top quality dried biscuit mixed up with some other tasty food.  I do enjoy lots of varieties of food, especially porridge, bananas, bacon, chicken, carrots, pasta, sausages, rice, Broccoli, Sardines, mince, cheese (We always get called CheeseDale Terriers when the cheese comes out)pork, steak, lamb, crisps (bad but good) and the occasional bite of Indian or Chinese food (hmm.....Chicken Madras, Pilau rice and a chomp of Nan Bread).  I try to eat a healthy balanced diet as I wish to retain my youthful figure.  I would certainly recommend at least 3 bowls of fresh water per day and the weekly tin of sardines in oil to keep one’s coat very glossy and soft!  I don’t eat out often, I much prefer, during the cooler months to spend my nights in, upside down in front of a roaring fire, with a couple of ice cubes to chew on but in the summer you are more than likely to find me stretched out in the garden enjoying the sunshine with a good book.  I just love BBQ’s and parties! Meeting people is always a interesting and sometimes a very rewarding experience, I am certainly not one to shrink away from social situations. I suppose you can call me a social Butterfly!

Favourite transport

Our favourite car is our Land Rover. We used to have more Land Rovers, we had an old 1963 Series IIa. We used to have SAABS and Range Rovers. One SAAB we had was a red convertible, as you can see in some of our pictures, it was great for posing, especially on a hot sunny day, and gives us a great vantage point to bark at other dogs or to demonstrate our fine art of howling. In 2006 we bought another one, so we now have a green SAAB convertible, great for getting the wind in your Aire! We do tend to travel around in our 100 V8 Land Rover most of the time, it gives us the most room and it has the most windows, we have at least one each to stick our heads out of and can often be seen AeroDaling around the Welsh countryside. There's loads of room for us all when the seats are folded down, great for having a wrestle with the guys. I like to make sure I get the best seat in the Land Rover. When we are in the SAAB convertible we do adhere closely to canine road safety and wear a seat belt at all times.  We have had many humorous experiences - I remember one occasion before Harry and Dylan arrived, in Stratford, Linda, Richard and me were sitting in the convertible, at the traffic lights on Greenhill Street when I noticed this bloke staring at me, smiling and saying I was ‘gorgeous’, that bloke had good taste!  He had a dog with him and was trying to point the dog’s head in my direction but the dog wouldn’t have it.  Linda and Richard were laughing so much I just had to look away and pray the traffic lights would change quickly!  We often get pointed at when we are out and about and sometimes wave to other cars travelling behind us, it can be such fun!

We also had a Daimler for a while, it was big and comfortable. The Daimler, or Dave the Daimler as we affectionately named him, was a nice smooth, fast drive; he was very low to the ground so making it terribly easy to hop in and out.  Ideal transport for a discerning Airedale I’d say!

Leisure and hobbies

I am genuinely interested in most things and have a keen, inquisitive, open mind. I enjoy hill walking, the outdoors, garden design, dentistry, home interiors, Yoga, wrestling, squirrel & pheasant capture and kitchen studies. I have recently acquired my Masters degree for the fine art of pheasant chasing, highly rewarding and very worthwhile.  I like to keep up to date with a little television news, current affairs, technology market and wildlife programmes. I do like to recline in the evening in front of a lovely roaring fire and listen to some soothing music I also look out for my dear friend, the glamorous Jackie Kabler from GMTV.  I relax and unwind with some Airedale yoga, the occasional drop of chilled cider, glass of Chateauneuf du Pape and a flute or two of Champagne, a lovely accompaniment for the cheese board for us CheeseDale Terriers!

Career

I am employed full time by Planet Airedale. Although I am the Queen of Planet Airedale I don't let it go to my furry bonce. I do like to work and keep myself very busy. I model our latest clothing lines and advise on marketing strategies to ensure Planet Airedale goes from strength to strength in it's quest for worldwide recognition. I also spend a lot of my time promoting Planet Airedale, it's only fair all the Airedales get to know all about us, Planet Airedale is thee place to be seen, you know!  I'm not sure if this should be in the career section or not but I have always wanted to write a book, I've had the idea for years and a rough idea of the plot but all I need now is the time to sit down and write. I've heard lots of bitch stories, maybe I could incorporate them into my book. Richard said he would help me.

Top Toy

Tesco Ball with black nylon cord handle attached (£3.99). Very tough so far we have been unable to pierce the ball; it’s great for a game of tug 'o' war with Harry, Dylan, Richard or Linda.  Although one of my all time favourite games must be to stand at the top of the stairs, throw the ball down and I growl while I chase after it to the bottom.  In our old house in the Cotswolds my Airebrakes would sometimes fail and I would hit my furry mush off the large wooden front door!  It is fair to say, all our toys have a tough time as they have to withstand pretty rough play from Harry, Dylan and I!   9 Woofs out of 10.This old favourite is still going strong although I have to dig deep into the Toy basket to find it. I did have a big furry gorilla to chomp on for a while but he had to go the Furry toy golden gates as he couldn't stand the pace and fell to pieces. A good old traditional Tennis ball is always good fun and you can amuse yourself for many hours with it and you can enrol some human help in if you happen to roll it under the bed. Get the human on their hands and knees looking for your ball and go in for the kill, a huge nose poke in the face is always a great Airedale and Human bonding moment, LOL!
