NEWKID 27,763 Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 Hi mate Are you getting this terrier just as a pet or do you plan to work it at all? From what I've seen most terriers like to work I think it makes them tick and they're happier, My mate keeps 4 terriers all inside 1 patt 1 jrt and a couple of bulls his kids learnt to walk holding on to the dogs they are rock solid around the kids and have done/do various types of work. I've got a jrt who's great with my little ones and is a good ratter and busher works with the ferrets and is happiest out working, they can still be house pets, good with kids and work. Likes been said though I would not leave my young children alone with my dogs in a room no matter how much I think I could trust them it only takes one moment and you'll regret it the rest of your life.

"I would not leave my young children alone with my dogs in a room no matter how much I think I could trust them it only takes one moment and you'll regret it the rest of your life." I totally agree with you're quote above mate - never ever leave them alone. Read a few months back about a greyhound suffocated a baby by lying on the sofa with it - f**k me, you'd never get over that eh? Quote Link to post
