That as it is the unanimous opinion of the Airedale Terrier Club that
the size of the Airedale Terrier as given in the above Standard is one
of if not the most important characteristics of the breed, all Judges
who shall henceforth adjudicate on the merits of the Airedale Terrier
shall consider undersized specimens of the breed severely handicapped
when competing with dogs of the standard weight. And that any of the
Club's Judges who, in the opinion of the Committee, shall give Prizes
or otherwise push to the front dogs of a small type, shall at once be
struck off from the list of Specialist Judges.
