Terriers come in a delightful variety of shapes and sizes, but the Wire Fox Terrier truly stands out. Known for its inquisitive nature, strong will and playful impulsiveness, the Wire lives life on the edge of excitement. Not only is it a fun and fearless breed, but it is also deeply devoted to its family. The origins of the breed spark various opinions, yet early 18th century paintings showcase dogs resembling both the Smooth and Wire Fox Terrier. Even the beloved Belgian cartoonist Hergé featured the Wire Fox Terrier as Tintin's faithful companion, Snowy!
