About Wire Fox Terrier
|
Country of Origin, History of the breed
Terriers were developed
through crosses of ancient Dachshunds, the
English Hound, the Fox Hound and the Beagle.
The Fox Terrier is one of the oldest terriers
and was used in England to hunt foxes during
the 18th century. Its job was to harass the
fox out of its hole by snapping, growling
and lunging at the fox until it bolted. They
were also very useful in eradicating rats.
Today’s Fox Terriers
are mainly companion dogs. They are great
at hunting, tracking, watchdogging, agility,
and performing tricks.

A General Appearance of the Dog
The Wire Fox Terrier’s back
is shorter than his legs are long. He shows good
muscle throughout. He appears to be on tiptoe with
expectation. His eyes, ears and tail all give the
impression of being alert and ready. His tail is
docked to ¼ its length and stands straight
up most of the time.
The Wire Fox Terrier’s head
is square and his V-shaped ears are folded well
above his skull with the points dropping down toward
his cheek. His skull should be flat and should narrow
going down his muzzle.
The Fox Terrier is a well-built,
elegant dog - concentrating a lot of strength in
a little space. He is blessed with many weapons
of attack such as strong jaws, well-developed teeth,
eagerness, physical strength, and above all, courage.
Coat Color
White is the predominant color
on the Wire Fox Terrier. He can have markings of
any color other than brindle, red, slaty blue or
liver. Black and Brown are the most common colors.
Those markings can be as patches or swatches over
his body.
Coat Type
The coat of the Wire Fox Terrier
is coarse and wiry like a coconut matting. The hairs
grow so closely and strongly together that, when
parted with the fingers, the skin cannot be seen.
At the base of the stiff hairs is a short, fine,
soft undercoat.
The hair on the upper and lower
jaws should be crisp and only sufficiently long
enough to give the idea of strength.
Height
Males: 14 – 15.5 inches
Females: 13 – 15 inches
Weight
Males: 14 – 18 lbs
Females: 12 – 16 lbs
Personality
Temperament of the Dog
The Wire Fox Terrier is a spunky
dog who is brave and scrappy. He is a very typical
terrier who is willing to take on animals several
times his size. He even picks fights with other
dogs. Other pets, especially small ones –
and birds – are not safe with a Fox Terrier.
He is also a digger.
Wire Fox Terrier is a clown of
a dog that makes a great pet for families with older
children that would enjoy the rewards obedience
or agility training could bring.
He is an eager learner and with continued reinforcement
will learn to direct its energy into positive activity.
If left bored or to its own devices, this terrier
can become disobedient and destructive.
As a family member, he is loyal
and devoted. He loves being with his family. Enthusiastically
playful with children, he loves to learn tricks
and show off.
They are willful and need to be firmly obedience
trained from an early age. Behavior problems may
include dominance challenges and guarding objects,
toys, places and their own food.
This breed is not for the timid
owner and older adults will not likely enjoy their
excessive energy. Wire Fox Terrier is almost too
smart for his own good and is always alert to its
surroundings. A small yard is good for exercise
but walk on lead to keep him socialized and obedient.
Aggression with other canines,
no matter the size is common, so keep him on lead
around other dogs. Fox Terriers love to chase and
have very quick responses, so keep them in safe
area when off lead.
This breed makes a nice urban
dweller but loves to bark and should be trained
early when enough has been said. Crate training
early will keep this pet safe and eliminate destructive
behavior due to boredom.
Better suited to an indoor
or outdoor lifestyle?
Wire Fox Terriers prefer to live
indoors.
The Wire Fox Terrier does okay
in an apartment if it is sufficiently exercised.
Because he is very active indoors, he will do fine
without a yard or with a very small yard if he is
walked.
Are they suited to homes
with kids?
As a family member, he is loyal
and devoted. He loves being with his family. Enthusiastically
playful with children, he loves to learn tricks
and show off.
Wire Fox Terrier is a clown of

Activity
Level
How Active is the Breed?
Because he is very active indoors,
he will do fine without a yard or with a very small
yard if he is walked.
How Much Exercise Does
the Dog Need at every stage of its Life?
Puppies, as usual, will need more
exercise periods than adults.
Grooming
Wire Fox Terriers need a very
complex routine to keep their coats in show condition.
However, as a pet, he will only need some brushing
and three to four visits a year to the professional
groomer for stripping and other care. The Wire Fox
Terrier sheds very little, so he can be a good breed
for allergy sufferers.
Health
and Care
Genetic Problems
Since these dogs are predominantly
white, deafness can be an issue. Post nasal drip,
lens luxation, distichiasis, cataracts, Legg-Perthes,
and shoulder dislocation are problems with Fox Terriers.
Life Span: 15
or more years.
