What special health problems might come up with a Cairn Terrier?
There is a short list of special things to look for and be aware of with the Cairn, including possible skin irritations, cataracts, and a variety of heart defects that can occur in any pure bred dog. For most of these conditions, a careful examination by your veterinarian is the best place to start. For more in-depth information, you might consider reading a great manual for Cairn Terriers called Genetic Anomalies of the Cairn Terrier.
