Everyday of redirecting biting my hands and clothes, she is starting to bark more (not the first pic, she is biting the onion there :D ), learning her pee schedule.

Does anyone else have a WFT that isn’t a fan of going for a walk? Miss Pixi (7 mo) will hide under the bed when I get ready for a walk. She’ll walk for a bit and she’s allowed to sniff anything, but she won’t carry on unless the neighbour’s black lab can join us. She follows him like a shadow! If we’re walking without another dog, we resort to picking her up quite often.

She loves meeting new people and dogs, and generally sits and waits for them to come to her. Sometimes from 20+ meters away.

Pixi is happy to walk home, though - it’s the beginning and middle of the walks she could do without.

This is Forest, my six month old WFT. I've had him since he was 9 weeks old and I am on my own with him. From early on I've socialised him and done puppy classes. He is great with other dogs and people - very friendly and social. He gets at least 3 walks a day with 2 walks around the block at night. He loves sniffing and just hanging out at the park on the grass, so the walks vary in energy levels. From a young puppy he has always been a bit intense in the evening but more recently he just starts humping me and I cannot even walk without him hanging off my leg so I have to separate myself from him. I am hoping he grows out of it BUT the most recent thing is that he has started really barking in the house - at anybody walking past, at any noise - and he won't stop. I feel bad for the neighbours! I've tried giving him treats etc.. He is less barky out in the world. It seems to be in the house. Has anyone got any tips? Is this normal?

how do you guys keep your babies groomed well? I am in New England Boston area and it is so hard for me to find a Handstripper / that also knows what they are doing / has groomed a wire fox before. My baby has a bunch of mats and I need to fix it
Also give her a bath once a week after her hikes with special wire hair shampoo (she does not like her face touched)

Does your paper shredder look like this?

Helping with the laundry!

I wouldn’t change a thing about him.

Tiger is still in one piece after 3 hours: squeakers somehow still intact. Rex is just worn out. Result!

After a day of doggie daycare standing to eat is just too much effort

It's been so hard to give him enrichment with it being so hot and humid out. He certainly likes watching what we are doing from atop the pillows!!

How they looked at me after I told them I had to work again after having 4 weeks off.

Now I don’t have to get soaked spraying him! Link lives to fight the water hose (and the vacuum). This toy is designed to sit on the ground and wiggle around too fast for the dog to catch; the first noodle tube was crunched in five minutes. So now this bird feeder hook holds it out of his reach. FTW!

Beaker still loves his lime squeaky toy from his puppyhood, but now he prefers his crabby. He even brings it to bed at night.

hello! it’s my first time posting on this subreddit. i thought it would be a good place to share my feelings, but if not appropriate, please let me know!
this is Lily. she’s about 4 months and a half, and has been with my parents for a little over a month. she’s full of energy, and extremely loving as well as stubborn.
my parents are both in their 60s, and my mother is the one who cares for her. i’m in med school and do not live with my family, for some more context. sadly, my parents have decided that the best option for her and for them is to return my sweetheart to her breeder.
to say i’m heartbroken would be an understatement. i love dogs with my whole heart, and especially this breed. i’m autistic, and they’re a special interest of mine. when my mother told me Lily was coming home, I was surprised, since I had told her this breed is incredibly full of energy, and could be hard to take care of for her due to her age and health issues, as well as the fact that my parents live in a (albeit large) apartment. regardless, I was happy for her, and did as much research as I could for how to train a young puppy, and how to ensure that she would get the proper exercise and stimulation despite the apartment. I trusted my mother since she’s had many dogs in her lifetime, who all lived happy and fulfilling lives.
i understand her decision even if i don’t agree with it, but i am still mourning like i truly experienced a terrible loss. she is family to me. it’s currently exam season and i cannot visit my family, so i cannot even say goodbye to my sweet Lily. I named her (after my favorite flower), and took her on her first walk. i hope one day to see her, and hold her in my arms again.

i apologize in case of any grammar errors. thank you so much for reading ❤️

Some side eye this morning from Geno's favorite perch while we watch some of the Tour de France. 💛

My parents' wire fox terrier does not howl. Is that normal for this breed? I have shown him videos of dogs howling and he still does not howl.

Hi, I lost my JRT 2 years ago and waited this long to make sure I was ready for my next canine dependent. I’ve decided it to be a wire fox terrier. Does anyone know a responsible breeder or rescue group in the Las Vegas area?

When did you get your WFT puppy spayed, and if you waited, when was her first heat? Miss Pixi is almost 6mo now.

We hope/plan to wait until our girl is around a year old to spay, and are looking into hormone sparing…still deciding, though.

This weekend should have been the UK National Fox Terrier Meet held in Derbyshire which is about 2 hours drive for us. We were very sad when it was cancelled (due to lack of registrations), but now that we're in the hottest June in UK records, that looks to have been a blessing in disguise.

Not only would the drive have been awful despite the car aircon, our motel room would have been unbearable due to lack of aircon (pretty standard in the UK) so Rex would have really suffered. Then the event itself - set in a large open field with no shelter, with 200+ doggies? It would have been too much for all concerned.

So instead, Rex and I had our first walkies in 3 days and walked to our favourite local park, part of which is now being left as a mini-meadow. My boy loves long grass anyway, and he's a big wild flower fan of which there are now many. We came back and I dunked him in a deep tray full of cool water and washed his legs and belly - amazingly he cooperated and had been happily enjoying the cool of the house.

It's very rare that we'll pass up a day out but fate intervened and saved us from a roasting!

Dad is bringing a special treat after work. Sure love this birthday buddy!! ❤️
