Airedales Molly & Grenson 'share' a bone... May 2016

First Grenson has the bone and Molly tries to steal it from him... Then Molly has the bone and it is Grenson's turn to covet it. It is only a small chunk of bone, but I love the varied tactics employed by each of them as they try to take it from the other. Molly (11.5) is gentle, but persistent - building up to boisterous, whilst Grenson (9 months) resorts to a combination of clowning around, stirring, diversion tactics, persistent patience and - his forte - annoyance to the point of despair!! But beneath it all, he knows who is the true boss, and although she is a gentle giant who never hurt a fly, she capitalises on this, toying with him and daring him to challenge her. Funny - there is no food aggression between them - they happily switch dishes at dinner time and never fight about food - but here Molly's hard-fought gain (combined with a bitey-face game) was not something she was going to give up easily!

What beautiful Aire pups! No need to go to the movies or watch T.V. when you have this much fun at home. My Airedale acts just the same way.

I miss molly. When you posted your tribute my whole family cried. Having two is the best. Our Boone is 12 Hazel is 5 We’ve just now have started a conversation about the next, it might just be quarantine thoughts.

Literally a lesson in Pack behavior. Great dogs

[@trampismat]

That's the most gentle play I think I've ever seen ... I want to be an Airedale so much.

We had an Airedale in the family for 15yrs his passing left a big gap with us all your fantastic clips are a joy to watch Ptolomy with Molly and Gertrude brought back happy memories of when our grandsons were baby's Now Molly and grenson a whole new chapter please let us know all about him and his adventures with your lovely family Kent UK

[@BuddhaBoyClips]

Thank you for your kind words. 15 years was a long time to share with an airedale - a huge gap I am sure. I will make more videos with them all together as soon as I get a chance! Watch this space.... Thank you again so much. Kate

[@BD-to6md]

I miss my Airedale whose name also is Molly 💕

[@BuddhaBoyClips]

I miss our Molly too xx

[@vee1324]

Too cute😆😂

[@gillianstewart8442]

Awww poor Grendon, he was so patient. I hope he got the bone later lol.

[@BuddhaBoyClips]

Oh please don't worry about Grenson. He would have got it back eventually. He is a bit selfish and will always try to take whatever Molly has - if I give them both an one or a pigs ear or something he will rush off to hide his then try to come back for here too, and she usually lets him, if I am not there to stand up for her and help her guard it! So really, he was fine! It's all a big game and they love the chase too. After this they were still great friends of course!

[@yairmetargem277]

NO GOOD

[@darbydupree4056]

They are beautiful! Your dogs are always so well behaved. Where was Ptolemy?

[@BuddhaBoyClips]

+Darby Dupree hello again! Ptolemy was at school when I took this! I will get around to doing one with all three of them....soon!

[@darbydupree4056]

Grenson is a sharp looking dog! I see she didn't have her tail docked. Are you considering raising puppies?

[@BuddhaBoyClips]

+Darby Dupree hello! Thanks - he is very smart. His tail isn't docked because we are in Australia and it is not longer legal here to dock tails. We rehomed Grenson when he was 6 months old and he had jus been desexed by his previous owners so - no puppies I'm afraid.

[@MienemLeben]

How old is Molly?

[@BuddhaBoyClips]

Jennifer Mill hi there. In this video Molly was 11.5 years old. She is now 13.5 years old - and far less active now. Grenson would have been 9 months old in this video....

[@MienemLeben]

Buddha Boy Clips My Parents had an Airedale live to be 15 (He was a month short of 16 years old)! He had a tumor grow on his spinal chord! Eventually he couldn’t hardly walk anymore and had to be put to sleep! It was so sad to say goodbye after being in our life for so long! His name was Sam!

[@BuddhaBoyClips]

Wow - almost 16 is a huge age for an Airedale! What a wonderful life he must have led. I don’t think we’ll get quite that far, so just grateful for every day really. I know of a handful of airedales who are 14 or 15, which is fantastic.

[@timg624]

Hi we have been watching your videos for awhile and we are now getting a puppy in the next few months wanted to know any differences between a male and a female Airedale If you can help us that would be great thank you

[@BuddhaBoyClips]

Tim G hello. We have had two females and one male and the male has been the most affectionate by far. One of our females was quite aloof (Molly) and didn’t tolerate much cuddling - it was on her own terms. Gertrude was far more cuddly than Molly and liked to lie on top of you, but Grenson out-sooks them both! He adores affection and comfort and likes to be near someone. But he is also co rent by himself so he doesn’t have separation issues or anything. They are barked a lot but Grenson the most. He can be very protective of his house and car, barking at anything that approaches. He is very territorial. The girls were too, but not as much perhaps. Grenson loves to kick up the earth and wee on every tree, marking everything. He is quite full of himself! The girls did this too to some extent but not as much again. It’s really hard to say the overall differences as they have all been clowns, funny and characterful! Molly was very stable and measured whereas Gertrude and Grenson are both more flighty and skittish and unpredictable. All have been friendly with other dogs off lead but Grenson and Gertrude have elements of on-lead reactivity. Gosh it’s a hard one to really say!
