Ais forAirconditioner

An air conditioner is a device that changes the temperature of air that goes through it. Most airconditioners are for cooling air down. They work either by evaporating water inside them to make the air cool the same way that sweating cools you off, or they work by transferring heat from inside to outside by a heat pump. Some airconditioners are called reverse cycle because they can be used to heat your house too.

Ais forAiredale Terrier

Airedale terriers are originally from Yorkshire in England, and are one of the largest terriers. They have a very wirey coat and shed very little, especially if they are kept well groomed. Airedales were originally bred to hunt otters, but today are used as a police dog or as a pet. They are strong-willed, stubborn, and can be difficult to train.

Ais forAkita

Akitas are large dogs originally from Japan, and are descended from one of the oldest dog breeds. The breed is currently split into two - the American Akita and the Akita Inu. The American breed is larger, and a lot more colours are allowed. Akitas are a friendly, playful dog that needs lots of exercise. They can be boisterous around children, and can also be dominant so they need to be well-trained.
