- This is Nigel: a Wire Fox Terrier that will not allow himself to be ignored. Nigel is a 15 month old bundle of energy and puts the "terror" in terrier. Since he insists on being at the center of the family, we did a family project to show exactly how he manages to do this. If you do not want energy and activity... you do not want a WFT.

Thanks for posting this. We just lost our 12 year old WFT two weeks ago and even tho we have tons of videos of him, I can’t bring myself to watch those right now. Watching yours has helped in a way.
Tyler was the most amazing, loving and sweet dog we’ve ever seen. RIP, sweet boy!
I'm glad to hear this video helped. It is just awful to lose a family member and although we all have to go through it, and although it is a shame that nature leaves a dog's lifespan far too short, those memories last forever. Sorry to hear about your loss!
Hugs, yes it hurts real bad ❤
Having my Fox Terrier was the greatest privilege I’ve ever had R.I.P Bill😢😢
Me too bud. It was an honor to have shared part of my life with my boys.
Lego !!!! Thank you mate
Me too! The best companion of my life!
Still missing!
The sweetest button nose ever!
Same here man. RIP Jack
That sums it up perfectly!
I just lost my smooth coat fox terrier Misty at almost 18. She gave us a million wonderful memories. Love this breed and they're a laugh a minute.
The MOST Gorgeous breed of all dogs. I would LOVE to have one.
We had a Wire Fox Terrier named Ajax. He was fearless, smart as a whip, and totally devoted to us . Spoiled rotten, too, and well traveled. He knew when my parents pulled out the suitcases that he was going on an adventure. He preferred beach vacations.
I watched this right after Holmes our first Wire Fox died and now we have two more thanks to this video.
Archie & V - sad to hear about your loss but happy to hear you have two Wires to enjoy as part of your family.
I had WFTs for years, they are indeed, bundles of energy! Nigel is precious.
YES best and only dog for me. I grew up in a breeding business wire fox terriers everyplace. I got into it when I was in my 20's I am 60 now and no other dog has ever been worth having.
They are wonderful. Always a surprise.
Love this - Nigel is totally gorgeous and this shows just how much energy and intelligence he has.
I watched this with four wire fox terriers sitting next to me
I owned Tigger a wire haired fox terrier since she was 6 weeks old and she made it to her 16th birthday Sunday 9th August 2020. An amazing breed.
Thanks for the awesome video....We are considering another dog. My parents had a wired haired / Airedale mix that was an awesome dog...she died 37 yrs ago, ( at age 15 ) and we still talk about her !!! We loved that dog....and I would love to have another. Thanks for the video....you take wonderful care of your dog ! :)
Love these dogs, we had Milo he was high energy would run all day, they are from working stock. They are very intelligent dogs who want to please an amazing breed. Thank you for sharing
I keep coming back to this video. Amazing how many behavioral traits are identical in Fox Terriers (I have one as well). Love it and thanks for sharing :-).
I've had 4 WFTs and this video captures them perfectly. To know a foxy is to love a foxy if you are up to the task. They are truly amazing dogs.
I love wft breed we also lost our Eddie on 10-13-22 we miss him terribly . watching your video is good therapy.
Thanks so much for this wonderful video of Nigel ! ..We understand the energy and activity level of this breed. We have two wire fox terriers (Mattie and Riley) and cant imagine life without them !
Our fellow Bjarni (age 3) is exactly the same (there are videos on here to prove it). You don't adopt a WFT if you want a quiet life, and that's just how we like it. They are characters, first and foremost, unbelievably clever, energetic, endlessly curious, affectionate, silly, and keen observers of everything around them. A fully paid up member of the family is what he is.
Lovely dogs 👍👍
I can’t begin to imagine how many times I have watched this ... my foxy goes nuts watching with me
Awww! Glad you like it. I was walking with Nigel just today on the same trail where some of this video was filmed, thinking it would be nice to create an updated version of his movie. Nigel still makes us laugh every day - now at age 10.
@@SCHN4UZ3R how lovely and thank you for replying to me. That has made my day! Oh please do make another one 🙏. Nigel is lonely!! I’ve had 4 throughout my 37 years. I’ve only got the one now, Jenny aka ‘Pickle’. She’s 11. I lost one two years ago, he lived to 15 1/2 and sadly I lost one 4 years ago due to parvovirus. I’m not sure if I can send pictures on TH-cam, if I can, I’ll send you a picture of my little pickle.
@@SCHN4UZ3R PS ... my mum had her first one when she was 11, we are a fox terrier mad family!
Owning a fox terrier is just awesome so funny so naughty .Archie is just nuts love him to bits
Having had a wonderful Wire Haired as a child I am looking forward to two puppies arriving on Friday, it will be my privilege
We have had wft's for years and are getting an Airedale in a few days. Nigel is def and he knows it! Love that ear and tail set! Handsome boy.
This vid is the cutest and most accurate depiction of a wire fox terrier
wonderful video! Your WFT is beautiful! They are such a fantastic breed to own, I have had 7 Wires and as many at 4 at one time. Now I have only one--but she is spoiled rotten. The are a great dog with kids and great with just one person. I wouldn't have ANY other breed of dog! WIRES RULE!!
Oh Layla.....I know you. You are so missed.
Right on!
They are the greatest!!! Wish I had one again. The only up ever .
You have a beautiful Wire Fox Terrier! I can speak from experience, it's wild and crazy to live with a Wire, but I wouldn't have any other breed! I have had 7 in my life, sometimes 4 at a time. Right now I only have one, a 3 year old, Layla. She is a wonderful kid! I enjoyed your video very much! There is nothing better than having a Wire Fox Terrier!
They are literally the most energy full dogs and as beutiful and smart looking they are they need a lot of attention
Really liked the video we have has two WFT both have passed but they were great dogs, now we have Welsh Terriers and love then just as much.
i'm watching this like 50 time and it's literally my foxterier
Love to hear that! I’m guessing you are getting plenty of laughs. Nigel still does something every day that makes us laugh.
Lovely lovely dogs
I LOVE this video! There is nothing quite like a wire fox terrier! I look at this from time to time because it makes me laugh. I miss my wires terribly. I’ll never be whole without one.
Suzanne Hedderly - Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoy it. At some point I need to create a follow up video to this one. Nigel is now a middle aged boy but he hasn’t slowed down a bit. He still makes us laugh every day and we have often said we could pull together enough material for another video in a day or less if we just took the time. He is always up to something.
SCHN4UZ3R Thank you for the reply! I was wondering how he was doing because I knew the video was a few years ago. When I watch that video I see that Foxie-tude every wire owner knows and loves. :-D Joie de vivre, so much mischief, so much fun and laughter!! Nigel is a very handsome boy and I’d LOVE to see more of him. Hope you will make an update. I never tire of WFT videos and photos! Every look, every move so familiar to me it makes me laugh (and cry sometimes for missing my boys). Give Nigel a squeeze for me!
I don't have my boys anymore either but they still make me smile when I watch their videos! th-cam.com/video/ozEivVcpneM/w-d-xo.html
This merry fellow is soooo much like my own foxy! The habits, reactions, even the sense of humor :) Miss him so much
Can't get enough of your video, I own a Wire Fox Terrier, age 15 months, and he's exactly the same as Nigel, only he doesn't like to drive in a car. I love him, so much energy, and then he licks me to death. Best dogs ever
Thanks Michaela! Nigel has grown a lot older than he was when that video was made. The kids that appear randomly on that video are growing up too. The kids may all look different now, but Nigel remains the same in every way. He is a complete character and he continues to make us laugh every day. Interesting note on the car rides. Nigel loves the car. He loves to go for rides and has a routine when we are on longer trips. He often looks for a shadow or a reflective water bottle - anything that he can study or agitate for fun. Thank you for sharing your comment.
Ohimgosh! That's hilarious! Nigel is beautiful! Fox terriers are the BEST. They will keep you laughing. Enjoy every second of Nigel. :-)
I had a Fox/Jack mix for 13 years until cancer took him out. He was the most wonderful living creature in my life. RIP Whiskers.
We had two lovely wired fox terriers when I was a child, growing up in Denmark. Charming, funny, good looking dogs, with a lot of self confidence. Thank you so much for sharing this video :-)
Thanks. I'll check out the video. Nigel does indeed keep us laughing at all times.
he is adorable so much fun, lucky you
Thanks! I grew up with a mini schnauzer, and now also have a Standard Schnauzer (equally as fun, but certainly very different breeds). Knowing mini's and wires well, I can imagine your dog is a very funny character.
Watching Nigel was like watching a day in the life of our Welsh Terrier...
What a wonderful life ! Kiss from France
I own a wire fox terrier and she is about 14 years old but she is super energetic and doing amazing for her age:)
Great to hear! Nigel's older "brother" is a 14 year old Standard Schnauzer and I am amazed at how playful and vibrant a healthy elderly dog can be.
I own a fox terrier named Fox, I love him so much 😊❤️
Love this video. It's everything that Bailey does as well!
I've owned Airedales all my adult life, we added a Scotty to the family 6 years ago. Now we're down to 1 Airedale and 1 Scotty and thinking that our third one will be a wire fox. We love the high energy of the terriers it keeps me fit, entertained and happy and it keeps my husband laughing.
I have a smooth coated fox terrier. She is eager to please. Wants to be with me at all times unless she is on the chase. Very jealous, I can't pet any other animal without her getting upset. She can't take the cold, even in the house she is under the blanket. Doesn't want to sleep by herself. Never destroyed anything as a puppy. Is a very good guard dog, never bit anyone but she makes strangers think she will. She sheds like horrible and rolling in cow poo is her favorite thing.
I had two wirerterriers. The last one
Two years ago. Untilled he passed
Away. Shuch a cute dog and very smart. Learned to open the doors
In my home by lefting the handels.
Best wft video still
Nigel is getting up there in age now, going on 14. But he is still as feisty as he was in that video. He is still the quirky unique boy he has always been. Whenever we host guests, he scans the room and has an uncanny way of selecting the person that likes dogs the least, and proceeds to attempt to sit on their lap.
I'm having a Wire Fox Terrier! He's crazy ;-;
I've had 3 Fox Terriers over my lifetime. "Nigel" is an exact example of these "Lads." They are wonderful companions. Oh, and don't let him or her hear you getting out some cracker and cheese! He could be in the next room, sound asleep, but open a box or sleeve of crackers, cut a piece of cheese and the next thing you will see is the Fox sitting in front of you, moving closer to you and eventually whacking your leg with his nose to get your attention that he wants his share of the cracker and cheese.
Don't expect him or her to settle for sleeping in his bed in the day time when there are much more comfortable chairs, couches or beds available. He or she will find the most comfortable location and make it his own. The Foxes DESERVE their comforts!
I actually have film of Nigel zonked out sleeping on his back on a couch, where I tip toe to the fridge and as it opens he springs up and runs to the kitchen. If I ever do a companion video to this one, I will include it.
This dog is like my son when he was 6. TROUBLE. God your dog is so Cute. Good Luck
Nice video. I had a female one and it was a great dog. You guys are good owners for giving him so much attention and challenges, not to mention letting him eat the vacuum!
They are INTENSE.
But the best!!!!
I miss Dusty, Louie, and Baxter. (My wire fox terriers).
All in dog heaven now, with Puck, Snoops, and Clyde.
Fantastic video! My wire fox terrier Romeo is 4 year old. Greetings from Serbia :)
I love this video. I have had two wire fox terriers and this is so awesome to watch. Thanks for posting!
¡Mucha energía y actividad!
So much energy and activity!
They are all exactly alike! Mine loved the car.....loved to beg for food and loved a swimming pool.
I have a wire hair fox terrier. We have a little bell set up for her to ring when she has to go out. She rung it the other day, and I put her down, about to clip the leash on. She ran around the house, trying to get away from me. 😂
Also, my dad put her out without a leash one time, and she tore through the neighbors yard.
I love this video, i have the same exact dog and it does the same exact things. :)
I have heard similar comments from other fox terrier "parents". I think there are certain traits that stem from the original breeding of terrier breeds that just keep shining through, and you can't get much more "terrier" than a Fox Terrier.
I had a WFT as a kid and then a boyfriend with one named Rufus---God! I miss that dog!
What a cute WFT! Mine is ten years old in August and has been in poor health recently (the vets can't quite figure out what's wrong), but she still loves her walks and is still as stubborn and athletic as ever! Only difference from Nigel here is that she hates cuddling up, she'll sit on your lap and that's about it :P
Different dog breeds are known for the way they focus attention, hunt, etc. The Wire Fox Terrier is a "Sight Hunter." As can be seen from this video, this dog is always watching every movement. When they are lead on the leed, they are always looking around. Good example: I had a male and female fox. the female would sit on a patio chair, which allowed her to have an unobstructed view of my large back yard. She would gaze fixedly and intently, especially with her eyes wide open looking for any movement. Without any warning or sign, she burst from the chair at flank speed, through the screen door and pounced upon a snake and the male Fox. rushed out behind her. Smart dogs: each dog would attack the snake at the opposite end. Some of them were venomous, but none lived to tell the tale. Cold blooded snakes stamina are only good for about 2 or 3 minutes. She would see things that were literally impossible for a human to see. Loved those dogs!
Amaaaazing!!!!
I was actually laughing out loud at this video. all of these apply to my 6 year old WFT, Friday. except for the vacuum part, she is terrified. thanks for posting!
Love those Foxies!!! He's beautiful!!!
Too adorable! What a dog.
Your dog is adorable! It's awesome to see that all the same shenanigans are part of the wirehair fox terrier breed. My little wirehair also tilts her head to the side. Too cute!
I kept my female Wire Fox for 13 years and 4 months before she died 2 months ago. I miss her terribly!! WFT's are the greatest little buddies one can have! My doggie was named Maggie; she had the very same mannerisms as these precious WFT's have, always active, alert and protective,and funny; so many cute things she did. I am looking to find another one but its hard to find a good breeder in Florida, but I'm still searching for that new buddy. Your dogs are terrific!!
my wire fox terrier had this much energy in old age!
Lenore same I have one that is 14
We have had 4 smooth coat fox terriers. Misty is 17 and Jimmy is 10. I can't imagine having any other breed. They are such a joy. Quite rare here in Australia these days. I have never seen a wire coat and have only seen two smooth in the last 20 years. Such a shame as they are a fantastic breed. They do have tons of energy but they also have tons of personality to match. Mans best friend.
Great video, and totally true😄
Our Amara is exactly this way. She is a holy terror when it suits her and lies on her back for hours when it suits her. She's crazy kooky and we also have vacuum wars but I wouldn't have her any other way...except maybe not so pudgy lol. (The vet is unconcerned)
Great job capturing the Wire Fox Terrier mentality!
Omg how cute, I was looking to adopt this sweet mama pup and she's a wire haired fox terrier, ehe
Your pup is absolutely charming
Nigel Rocks the House !!!
What a Pup !!!! Wire Haired Fox Terriers are the Best
My wire hair is call ROCKY....AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PHOTO....HE IS MY HEART ❤
Grew up with a few different mutts, now my sister has a Pug and my Mom a Maltese. But I think this will be my 1st dog, they look like so much fun :D
Silver est un amour aussi, mais 1 an pas de rappel joueur, collant à moi ou mon mari. des fox des amour des chiens adorable.
Amen to the "energy" my Annie is 5 years old and acts like she just turned one, we play frisbee - HARD and we play ball, and we walk, play rings, and did I say we walk? They are very high energy, smart dogs that require an owner that will play, walk, teach them new things (and let me tell you, educate your WFT or they will find things to do on their own!. Wouldn't own any other dog. They are SMART, loyal, and easy to train. Grooming is easy, they rarely shed and are always wanting to see "what is that?"..
Awww I have a wire haired terrier too...... they are so smart honestly, very energetic, need lots and lots of cuddles, hunt rodents, have a strong personality. But mine kinda sheds which is weird but he was cross breed APPARENTLY with a poodle which I do not see so I have no idea wether they lied to us but honestly I don't care I love the little fella.
I like that you made a video showing the hyperactivity and some of the energy we have with out WFTs. I have two, they are a handful, but my mom was empty nesting and wanted a toddler. She got two. We love the breed, but never recommend it to anyone who isn't familiar. They are a very frequently abandoned breed because people don't understand their needs.
I grew up with a schnauzer and now Im thinking along the lines of Wire Fox or Lakeland. You have a great little guy there.
I love the low cam shots.
Great dogs and raised them with Airedales. I pity the snake that dares to slither through the back yard of the Wire Fox. These dogs are Sight Hunters. and don't miss much. They are always watching. Example: my son sat on the couch against the far right of the room; I sat to the far left of the room. Trixi my wire fox pushed a desk chair which was on wheels with her head to the opposite end of the room jumped on it and sat down intently watching both my son and myself without pause. When I move back to the country, both Airedales and Wire fox terriers our at the top of my list to purchase..
I agree. NOTHING is missed. Any squeak. Any flash of movement. It MUST be investigated.
Nigel seems really well behaved, compared to Alfie, our wire fox terrier!! Two years old and a nightmare ( don't get me started on his obsession with paper tissues!!) Alfie gets car sick, so we have some lovely stories about that. If only he would do that 'sticking your head out of the window-cute dog thang' we;d be laughing x
Haha, great video. My Lewis is exactly like this.
Ha! Thank you. Enjoy Romeo!
I love Lakeland terriers too. Life is just too short... there are so many breeds I know I would enjoy and just not enough time to have them all. I grew up with mini schnauzers but have since moved to Standard Schnauzers. Our other dog is a Standard Schnauzer and he has been a wonderful member of our family and a great "big brother" to Nigel. Standards are quite a bit bigger than minis, with a much more mellow personality.
Beautiful foxie...what a nice groomer you have too.
I had lots of help early but now do all stripping and grooming myself. Thanks!
SCHN4UZ3R im getting a wire fox terrier myself in a couple of days and would love to know how to strip and groom like that!
manda98xo Sorry... just saw this comment. I am no expert but I have a very good grooming document that I follow and I could look into getting you a link if you are interested. Stripping is much more time consuming but the colors stay much more vivid. The tools are important too as there are many different types of stripping tools. I primarily use two... one for general stripping and one for more detailed work on the face. These tools can be ordered on line.
SCHN4UZ3R any tips on how to do it yourself? Equipment etc? :)
SCHN4UZ3R scissor is absolutely forbidden if you want a good and healty fur and correct coloring..
The Pictures here www.boberg.nu/hundare.html are samples of Airedales and Wired Foxterriers with good colors..
Samples of dogs with good fur can also be seen here. 35-års jubileum strävhåriga foxterrierklubben Sorry about the Swedish text but the video describes some activities during the Swedish "Wired Foxterrier club" (Strävhåriga Foxterrierklubben) 35:th aniversary this summer.
We have selected october 19 as an national activity day to promote our race. Total number of Wired Foxterriers in Sweden december 31, 2013 was 635 and we want that to increase. Perhaps the day can be an international.
we have i fox terrier hes almost exactly the same especially with the vacuum cleaner and watching people eat
We have a Lakeland Terrier... they’re very alike in personality.. we are thinking of getting a WFT too.
Hi Nigel, I think your great :)
We had one named Nigel!
Best WFT video in the WORLD ever! Love it. I also have one, his name is Lego. He's my everything.
I love this my wft is the same way I'm gonna try laundry basket thing
Sooo cute I had an Airedale Terrier that recently passed away but now I have a Welsh Terrier and a miniature Schnauzer. You're dog Nigel is soo cute though! I was considering getting one!
Had one best dog ever🐕❤️
Im about to get one
Real beautiful dog!
I just fell in love with Nigel. So cute and smart. I have a WFT puppy that's 10 weeks and extremely cute :) He has very nice coat. Watching this video made me worry about keeping my Motza's coat as nice as Nigel's. I would like to ask if you take him to the groomer or do his grooming at home? I don't know if I should buy a grooming tool to remove her undercoat as home regularly (or if it's bad for their coat). Does anyone know about this? I haven't able to find much useful information online :(
Das mir der Hund das liebste sei, sagst du o Mensch sei Sünde. Der Hund blieb mir im Sturme treu, der Mensch nicht mal im Winde.......My WFT Kalle is undoubtedly my best friend.
