Wire Foxy Russell

Wire Foxy Terriers are designer breeds that come from mixing Wire Fox Terriers with Jack Russell Terriers. The Wire Foxy Terrier's status as a hybrid dog has its pros and cons; the bad news is that Wire Foxy Terriers are not well known at all, as even the American Kennel Club and the English Kennel Club have yet to acknowledge this fledgling breed in either of their registries. The good news, however, is that both of the Wire Foxy Terrier's parents are world renowned breeds and learning about both the Wire Fox Terrier and the Jack Russell Terrier will offer a lot of insight into the potential mindset, mannerisms,  needs, and capabilities of the Wire Foxy Terrier. The mustache laden Wire Fox Terrier is a dog known for its loyalty and adept abilities as a hunter of vermin and foxes. Wire Fox Terriers are thought to have originated from the 19th century, with its ancestors hailing from Wales, Derbyshire, and Durham. Wire Fox Terriers were sought after due to their great hunting skills, but they also were lauded for their undying loyalty; the story goes that when Edward VII passed away, his Wire Fox Terrier named Caesar participated in his owner's funeral procession, so intense was the dog's loyalty to his master. Such fealty will have likely manifested in the Wire Foxy Russell, as well as possibility of the  Wire Fox Terrier's prey drive causing the Wire Foxy Terrier to give chase to smaller creatures and be very energetic on the whole. The Jack Russell Terrier, on the other hand,  derives his name from Reverend John Russell, a man who bred many Terriers to assist in hunts. With two experienced hunters as parents, the Wire Foxy Russell will likely be an energetic and loyal dog with the capacity to be a great companion if properly trained.
