What is a Fox Terrier?
A Fox Terrier is a small black and white, or brown and white, dog sometimes called a Foxy. These dogs were originally bred in 19th century England to uncover foxes when the foxes would disappear into their holes during hunts. There are actually three breeds of Fox Terriers: the Smooth Fox Terrier, the Wire Fox Terrier and the Toy Fox Terrier. All three types of Fox Terriers are known for their energetic and nervous natures.
