A big personality in a small, wiry, 'hard as nails' body,
the ever so independent Border Terrier
is an affectionate, self-assured (some would say stubborn) highly
energetic companion who loves
to run,and especially loves to dig. A lot. So say goodbye to your
daffodils.
Border Terrier Property Laws 🐾
If I like it, it's mine.
If it's in my mouth, it's mine.
If I had it a moment ago, it's mine.
If it looks like mine, it's mine.
If I saw it first, it's mine.
If it lands on the floor, it's mine
Border Terrier Food Protocol 🐾
If you drop it, the '3 second rule' applies.
If I can reach it, it was meant for me.
If it's edible, I'm pretty sure I'll like it.
If it's Cheddar Cheese, I know I'll like it.
If you don't want it, seems silly to waste it.
If I look lovingly at you, I deserve a treat.
Border Terrier House Rules 🐾
All food gets shared with me.
Don't come home smelling of other dogs.
You must throw the ball for me. Again. And again. And again.
Don't shhh me from barking, I heard the wind rustling the leaves.
I can sleep anywhere I want, even if it means you trip over me.
