Toy Fox Terriers O'BJ

"Puppies with a future - from dogs with a past!"

TOY FOX TERRIER PUPPIES NOW!

Perfect Puppies For Picky People...

Nearly two years of business and health problems kept me from the joy of a new litter, meeting new people, and the pride that comes with being a breeder.  So last summer, I decided it was time. 

Last year's litter was wonderful (I kept one!) and now I have a litter born April 11th

We plan to keep a female puppy so Early Reservations are suggested for a Hugely and Lolli puppy!

After so long without puppies in the house, last summer was wonderful.  Laughing as the pups learned to pose on a table and get their legs to work right. Their big accomplishment one day was learning to stand up on the X-pen panel to yip at me for attention.  I'm pretty smart too so I learned to sit perfectly still at the computer, with my back to them.  Being puppies, their attention span is shorter than the life span of a gnat so they quickly went back to dragging the stuffed yellow duck across the potty pads and I only made two typos.

O'BJ Toy Fox Terriers are "Little Einsteins" - known for incredible intelligence and strong personalities, as well as exceptionally good health and strong bones, all of which comes from decades of clean genes.  Explore the site to see what makes our Toy Fox Terriers typical - and different, starting with now over 46 years of attention to detail <smile> Be sure to meet Plain Jane and her grandson Hugely because the are the ultimate Toy Fox Terriers!

I may also have an adult female available and if so, I will publish information on her, as soon as I get used to the idea...  And no matter where you buy a Toy Fox Terrier, check how the breeder houses them, how many dogs they have, etc.  I know it's hard over the phone but you want a puppy that has been given a chance to be healthy, housebroken, and adaptable to every situation.  Toy Fox Terriers are CLEAN if raised clean. 

If the breeder gets nervous when you ask about such things, go elsewhere because a well bred, properly raised Toy Fox Terrier will be with you longer than anything you buy except your house.  Sobering thought eh?  One thing you can be sure of, these puppies are lovingly created by me and there's a couple hundred people that wouldn't trade their O'BJ puppy for a brand new car.  Is that bragging?  I guess, but you should be picky about your next best friend, right?

This 4 months old male out of Champion Fannie Mae O'BJ, shows what you should be looking for in the Toy Fox Terrier.  The ideal Toy Fox Terrier head has equal proportions and parallel planes which means in profile the muzzle is at the same angle as the flat topskull (the part from eyes to back head) with no hint of Chihuahua roundness. 

The Toy Fox Terrier should have a strong, well developed underjaw (see his strong chin?) with large, deeply rooted "terrier teeth" and big open nostrils.  Pet or show puppy, you want a dog that can breath and eat, a toy dog whose teeth don't fall out and whose strong, muscular legs don't break.  These are terrier characteristics which I've worked hard to set and keep in my bloodline.

Most toy breeds couldn't care less about catching a mouse but please remember, the Toy Fox Terrier is in the UKC Terrier group, the original registry for the breed.  He's a Terrier in a Toy dog body.  That makes him an ideal apartment pet and lap dog but he should still be constructed like a sturdy, agile little terrier!  We must not lose the strong vibrant health that is the hallmark of a working terrier.  It's sad that so many toy breeds have really bad jaw and skull deformities.  I breed for a "terrier mouth" capable of gnawing a raw knuckle bone or chicken leg - and they get both every week!

I'll update this page later but the sun is shining and me and the dogs are going out to play!  If you are interested in an entertaining, quirky adult, well, call me.
