  1. Thabks Dogsfvr, I haven't looked at that breed yet, will look into them.
  2. Thanks Scratch. Sounds like I'm on the money with the border, but keen to check out other options too so thanks. It is hard to find a puppy atm too, so maybe not bad being open to a couple of breeds.
  3. Haha love it. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll do some research on westies
  4. Yeah I need something a little more portable now to fit in the car...my boys are only getting bigger! Thanks for replying!
  5. Hi I'm so happy to have stumbled upon this forum! I am a lifelong dog owner who, for the first time in 32 years, is dogless after losing my old kelpie. I have had border collies mostly, a golden retriever and a little silky/daschund mix who was the best dog ever! So this time around, no longer living on acres, I want to steer clear of the borders and kelpies and get something more adapted to suburban life. I am drawn to terriers and have been enquiring about border terriers (one breeder has puppies coming soon which I have been put on the wait list for)...but before I commit to the breed I wanted some input on borders and also is there a better option? I live with 3 little boys (3,6,8), 2 cats and a lot of chooks. Dog needs to get along with us all! I used to do obedience and rally o and would love to get back to that, or agility. So needs to be eager to please/intelligent. We enjoy bushwalking and cycling and would love dog to join us. Also want dog to be able to be calm in the house. Low shedding/grooming needs a plus, small size and I do like a wirey coat (or short, less keen on fluffy or long coats). Any advice gratefully recieved!
