Irish Terrier
The Irish Terrier is an active, compactly sized dog that is suited for life in both rural and
city environments. The red, harsh coat protects an Irish Terrier well in all kinds of
weather. They are a dynamically charged animal in that they are able to relax fully inside
the house and be roused to a high activity level quickly. Irish Terriers are good with
people. Most Irish Terriers love children and tolerate rough-housing to a certain extent.
Most breed devotees would not recommend an Irish Terrier as the first dog, but they respond
well to owners who are able to provide firm, consistent training from a relaxed,
authoritative position. They have a reputation of being dominant with other dogs,
particularly those of the same-sex. Irish Terriers are intelligent but it takes time for them
to learn new things. They can learn tasks with some ease, when they have the motivation to do
so. In motivating tidbits and toys work equally well. Training will not be as easy as with
other dog breeds that have stronger willingness to please people. When seeking a trainer, one
should look for a person who has experience with terriers. |
