r/terrier

This was right in the middle of his old man zoomies.

She got bit and spent over night in an emergency hospital. But she is on the mend.

Where’s my chicken foot!!???
Disappeared her snack and immediately forgot.

I want to get up but she’s just so cute….

Recently adopted this sweet guy who we presume to be a terrier-mix with wiry hair. I have no experience with wire-hair dogs before and am looking for some advice on how to keep his coat healthy. He has medium length hair on his back (2-3in) but seems to be pretty thin to me and no noticeable under coat. His belly has very sparsely growing thin hairs. He’s about 1 so maybe it just still needs to fill in?

From the reading I have done so far, looks like I need to be using a pin brush and then a metal comb weekly? Is a slicker brush after necessary if he doesn’t seem to have an undercoat? And any specific shampoo or bathing interval you would recommend? I love his scruffy hair and don’t want to mess it up but have no idea what I’m doing! Thank you!

Tixx ready for a stroll to the park down the street. He has his water ready to go!
