Description
HistorySome Toy Fox Terrier breeders can trace their dogs’ lineage back to a Smooth Fox Terrier called "Foiler", the first fox terrier registered by the Kennel Club in Britain, circa 1875-76. It is believed that careful breeding from smaller Smooth Fox Terriers without crosses to other toy breeds such as Manchester Terrier and Chihuahua resulted in the Toy Fox Terrier of today.
Temperment
The Toy Fox Terrier is an intelligent, bold and athletic little dog. Although lithe, it is hardy and well balanced. Toy Fox Terriers are said to love human company. A related breed is the Miniature Fox Terrier, which was developed along similar lines in Australia.
Toy Fox Terriers, like many active and intelligent breeds, can learn to respond to many words. Toy Fox Terriers were used commonly in circus shows by clowns so they make great companions for owners with a good sense of humor. They are also, in general, not as active as the Jack Russell Terrier and are well suited for older owners.
They are extremely trainable and make a wonderful companion for people with disabilities. It is always eager to please its master. It is friendly and loyal. It is playful and comical, never yappy.
