Let's meet Dexter
Border Terrier, 7 years old
My favourite thing about Dexter is...
He’s obsessed with golf balls he puts them in between the slats of a pallet in the garage then spends ages scrabbling at it trying to get it out..
The biggest challenge with Dexter is...
Stopping him barking at everyone who passes the gate and if no one’s passing he sits in the middle of the drive just woofing intermittently.
The most surprising thing about owning a Border Terrier is...
They are very playful and surprisingly loving. They are not very food orientated….so not that easy to train.
What I wish I’d known about Border Terriers is...
How quickly their coats grow after being clipped.
Did you know?
As the Border Terrier was bred to run with the hounds, they are longer legged than many of the other terrier breeds and are more social than most too!
