Though you're obviously playing >$1 000 for a purebred, the breeder promised to cover any cost regarding hip dysplasia, and any medical costs for the first year regarding the puppy's health.

Even with breeders, you'll have good and bad...just make sure you do your research and make sure you have a clear understanding on what the breeder is providing you.
Airedale’s are awesome. I love terriers but a Wheaten was about as big, strong, and boisterous as I could go with small kids, otherwise I’d have lobbied for an Airedale
