Do You Know Your Dog? The Border Terrier

Calling all Border Terrier lovers! 🐾

Why does yours dig up the garden? Do you need to get that scruffy coat stripped? And will they ever come back from a squirrel?

At Houlton Hounds we're a team of 8 dog walkers near Rugby, looking after more than 200 clients, and we've a real soft spot for Borders: those otter faces, tough little bodies and huge hearts. This fun 16-page guide shares everything we've learned on lots of muddy, scruffy, happy miles.

Inside you'll find:

• Where Borders came from, and why they were built to follow a horse all day
• Digging, chasing and escaping, plus brilliant terrier games to keep them happy
• Whether a Border is right for you, and what they really need each day
• Kind, reward-based training tips, including recall around wildlife
• Grooming and hand-stripping, plus health checks like CECS and what tests the parents should have

We're dog walkers, not vets, so we've checked everything against the Royal Kennel Club, PDSA, Dogs Trust and the RSPCA, plus our own tales from the Houlton Hounds pack.

For every guide sold, we donate 50p to UK dog rescue charities ❤️

We hope it makes you smile, and helps you get to know your dog even better!
