Wire Fox Terriers are intelligent, independent, and a little funny dogs. Their independence may get them, and you, into trouble if you don’t have a creative, consistent and patient training program. Wire Fox Terriers require a gentle hand during training. If you’re too harsh or negative, they will shut down and be a bit more willful, stubborn. But if you’re patient, kind, and provide them with a variety of activities and tricks to learn and rules, they will be a lot easier to manage.
Healthy puppies will have clean ears with no signs of discharge, redness, inflammation or pungent odour. If the puppy is aggressively scratching or pawing their ear, tilting their head or excessively flipping their head, it may also be a sign of discomfort. Breeds with floppy ears are more prone to infection or disease.
