Fox Terriers are a delightful group of small-to-medium dogs originating from England. They were mainstays of traditional British fox hunts, known for their distinctive expressions, short legs, and either wiry or smooth coats. Let’s explore more about these spirited canines:
  1. Wire Fox Terrier:
    • Appearance: The Wire Fox Terrier has a wiry coat and a more V-shaped head. It’s a strong, short-backed hunting breed.
    • Temperament: Playful, bold, intelligent, active, and courageous.
    • Energy Level: High.
    • Hypoallergenic: Yes.
    • History: Originated in the late 1700s during British fox hunts. Their job was to coax the fox from its lair, allowing hounds and horsemen to pursue.
    • Size: 15 to 18 pounds, 14 to 15 1/2 inches tall.
  2. Smooth Fox Terrier:
    • Appearance: The Smooth Fox Terrier has a short white coat with black or brown markings.
    • Temperament: Affectionate, playful, and intelligent.
    • Energy Level: High.
    • Hypoallergenic: No.
    • History: Also originated during fox hunts, bred specifically without red fur to avoid being mistaken for foxes.
    • Size: Similar to the Wire Fox Terrier.
Both breeds are known for their antics, spirited personalities, and love for play. While they make great companions for adults and children, their high prey drive might not be suitable for living with cats or other dogs. So, whether you prefer wiry or smooth, Fox Terriers are sure to capture your heart! 🐾🦊
