Fox Terrier

Fox Terriers are small to medium-sized terrier breeds known for their spirited nature, intelligence, and distinctive appearance. There are two main types: the Smooth Fox Terrier with a sleek, short coat and the Wire Fox Terrier with a wiry double coat. They are alert, active, and highly intelligent dogs, requiring regular exercise and mental stimulation. Their grooming needs vary with coat type, from minimal brushing for Smooth Fox Terriers to regular brushing and hand-stripping for Wire Fox Terriers. While generally healthy, they may be prone to specific health issues, making regular veterinary check-ups important. With an average lifespan of 12 to 15 years, Fox Terriers are well-suited for active individuals or families who can provide them with the care and exercise they need.
