About Wirehaired Fox Terriers

The Wirehaired Fox Terrier has a rich history rooted in 19th-century England, where it was developed for fox hunting. Bred to be bold, agile, and tenacious, these terriers were used to follow foxes into their dens and flush them out for hunters. The breed’s distinctive wiry coat offered protection from brambles and rough terrain, making it well-suited for countryside pursuits. Wire Fox Terriers were selectively bred from a mix of terrier types, likely including rough-coated Black and Tan Terriers, to enhance their hunting instincts and physical durability. By the late 1800s, they gained recognition not only as skilled working dogs but also as show dogs and charming companions. Their popularity soared in the early 20th century, particularly after making a splash in the show ring and appearing in films and alongside famous owners, such as King Edward VII and his beloved Wire Fox Terrier, Caesar. Today, the breed remains admired for its classic looks, spirited nature, and lively personality.
