I have a Wire Haired Fox Terrier and he's a wonderful companion. After having many different breeds of dogs, I decided to get a Fox Terrier this time. He's about 2 years old and is a little ray of sunshine! (Most of the time) Terriers can be very stubborn and "deaf" if they want to be. The trick is to make sure that they know who's boss from a very young age - eventhough I think they will always try to be boss! If you are thinking of getting one, you will be making a great choice! maureen.harvey@sympatico.ca
