Hello from Flora
Fox Terrier Wire Coat, 14 Weeks old
My favourite thing about Flora is...
She is inquisitive, curious and keen to learn.
The biggest challenge with Flora is...
she likes to do things on her terms, so there is a stubborn streak in her. This is both endearing and infuriating!
The most surprising thing about owning a Fox Terrier Wire Coat is...
It is a softer coat than I thought and her colours are iconic fox terrier.
What I wish I’d known about Fox Terrier Wire Coats is...
her coat is a bit of a seed magnet this autumn, but she tolerates me easing sticky seeds off her. And, she doesn't mind a brush with a soft puppy brush.
Did you know?
The name ‘terrier’ derives from the Latin ‘terra’ meaning earth. Small terriers like the Wire Fox Terrier were original bred to go to ground, down into the holes that foxes and badgers live in. This means being small enough to fit into those holes, brave enough to face a frightened fox or badger head on, and nimble enough to drive them out of their den. It is therefore not a surprise that many terriers believe themselves to be far bigger and more fearsome than their actual size suggests.
