    House training destroyed!

    We were getting on fine house-training our puppy (wire-haired foxy); then unfortuinately we had to go away for six weeks and she went to stay with her breeder. She was kept in a large comfortable pen, but unfortunately got used to urinating and defecating wherever and whenever she wanted. We...

    What is the Healthiest and Longest lived dog breed?

    We have had wirehaired fox terriers for fifty years - apart from one who died of a surfeit of stilton cheese, which she stole, they have all lived into their teens - two of them to eighteen. Our present one, Toorak, has just becomes a faither for the first time at the age of fourteen, and is...

    Our four month old puppy (wirehaired fox terrier) very rarely barks during the day, not even when shut in while we go out. But she has suddenly developed the habit of barking and howling when sht in (with her father, who she lives with) at night. He curls up and goes to sleep, but she...

    A geriatric incestuous paedophine (but nice with it!)

    Thankf for that,m everyone. I should have explained that we brought him out from the UK and the professional breeder is keen to breed from him as long as he can manage it, because he is pure-bred and the fresh genes will be welcome in Australia where the pool of wirehaired fox terriers is...

    Father and Daughter

    Thanks for that long and detailed message - I saw your reply on the other forum and have replied there: we wouldn't be breeding - a proper authorized breeder would be 'borrowing' him or her. He is a pure-bred terrier from one of the top English breeders and came to live in Sydney with us from...

    Greetings from Sydney

    Hi, Cass. But that's the thing - the very professional breeder we 'ent' Toorak to is very easger for another attempt, as he is purely English bred, and it will be a very welcome addition to the gene pool here in Australia, where the breed is beginning to be somewhat in-bred. But you may be...

    Father and Daughter

    Our 14-year-old wirehaired fox terrier has recently sired pups (for the first time in his life!) and his three-month old daughter has come to live with us. They get on excellently together, even share a plate without fighting - the only problem being that he has fixed his nose to her rear with...

    Any idea what dog I should get?

    A wirehaired fox terrier - or a smoothie for that matter - would be excellent. Once considered 'snappy' thee breed is now very biddable, excellent with children, with a really threatening bark if you teach him/her to use it properly.

    Ha - well, I have to learn how to get picture on here first! Um . . If this works I hope it's obviously which one is the elder and which the daughter! .[/IMG] Ah, well, it hasn't worked - back to stage one.

    A geriatric incestuous paedophine (but nice with it!)

    Our wirehaired fox terrier Toorak very surprisingly at the age of 14 succeeded in siring a litter with another pure-bred wiry to whom he was introduced; and his three-month-old daughter, Fille has come to live with us. They get on very well together, but keeps making passes - she gives him a...

She came to live here...
