We are looking for a wire haired fox terrier puppy, ideally that we can buy early in January 2003. We are a family of 6, 4 children aged between 6 and 14, and have been dog owners for the past 14 years, a golden retriever - Higgins - who passed away 2 years ago.

We are based In Surrey - near Redhill - and can be contacted on 01737 245040 or mobile 07719 452897. email howbirdy@hotmail.com or k_bird@btopenworld.com

Any help with finding a suitable puppy would be much appreciated.

Many thanks

Howard and Kristina Bird

If you contact the Kennel Club they can give you the details of the secretaries of the fox terrier breed clubs. They also do puppy lists, but I would contact the club secretaries to check if they know of any people listed as having puppies, as in most breeds the breeders know of each other, and know the obvious bad eggs.
