How to Train your FOX TERRIER (WIRE)

Training Your Wire Fox Terrier

Similar to the Smooth variety, the Wire Fox Terrier is intensely energetic, highly intelligent, and fiercely spirited. They are easily bored and very mischievous.

Key Training Tips:

• Manage the Energy: They require massive amounts of exercise. A long run is required before attempting any obedience training to ensure they can focus.
• Consistent Boundaries: They are master manipulators and will test your limits daily. You must be a firm, unwavering leader.
• Grooming Training: Their wiry coat requires hand-stripping or clipping. Train them early to tolerate handling and grooming tools.

They absolutely excel in agility and Earthdog trials, making them thrilling companions for highly active owners.
