what lead us to the choice was i have seen some at my my soccer games,
some of the families have some, but also one of our family friends had
airedale terriers and we loved the look of them, but thought they were
too big for us, so we landed on welsh terriers

The personalities aren't the same.

If you know one of the families with a WT well, you may offer to pet sit
to get a better idea if you like the kind of activity level, how you
react (or not) allergy wise, etc. If you like one of the dogs in
particular, ask those people to share the name of the breeder.

Nothing beats spending time with a dog of a breed that you are
interested in, to make or break a deal. Even so, realize that only so
much is nature and a good deal is nurture. Be prepared to take training
classes with any new dog.
