Why Not Get A Small Breed Terrier?

For a lot of people, the decision to buy a small dog is influenced by the fact that they only have a small backyard, or live in a condo. Yet while lap dogs are very popular these days, there are also those that prefer the mannerisms of larger dogs. For these people, who like the temperament of larger dogs but cannot get one, small terrier dogs are an ideal pet. These little dogs look just like smaller versions of their cousins, yet they are not submissive like a lap dog.

Small terriers are, actually, the polar opposite of submissive. You’ll find them confident, willful, fearless, and outgoing. As a result they need strong leadership from their owners, so they always know their place in the ‘pack’. This is not the dog to get if you can’t be firm and assertive when it’s necessary. And you can’t let any situation develop, even when you’re playing, when your terrier gets to be dominant, even for a moment. – Because most terriers will challenge their owner at some point anyway, even if you do everything right. But if you don’t, you set up some potentially disruptive behaviour in your terrier.

Terriers are wonderful dogs. They’re affectionate and happy. If they’re socialized properly they should be fine with the household cat, although all other cats will be prey. This is because terriers have a high prey drive, so if you have young children and you have or want a terrier, you should always supervise them together.

Though terriers have the common characteristics described, the different breeds have their own unique qualities. These range from the obvious, like coat type and color, to temperament. Some breeds take longer to groom compared to others, even within the terrier group. That can be an important consideration when choosing a dog.
