This is our first Cairn terror but we've had a Doberman as well as an English Bull terrier in the past. I want to say thanks to you all for the info you provide on these guys. This site was very helpful when it came to choosing a Cairn. Our bull terrier left a huge void in our lives and we were very wary about getting a different terrier. All I can say is, Angus is awesome and we love him to pieces.
I've noticed there a lot of new pups on the forum and am glad Angus seems to be very normal when it comes to biting hands, feet, pant legs, anything that moves, etc. Our first few days I wondered if we could send him back to the breeder
But we've persevered, taught him to sit instead of attacking our feet and legs and he's getting to be such a good boy. We are amazed at how smart he is. He catches on very quickly and has adjusted to our routine very well. As he grows I'm sure I will have lots of questions but hopefully will be able to offer some advice as well.My biggest concern right now is when do I pull his puppy coat out? I pull a few strands a couple of times a week just to see how easy they come out. He does seem a little itchy and from another post I'm wondering if his coat is ready to come out. When I do pull it out, does it all need to be taken out in one day or can I do it over a period of a few days?
Will post a pic. tomorrow. The one I have needs to be made smaller.
Take care, Donna & Angus
. My little guy is 13 months old and he is still a terror but we love him regardless. Can't wait to see a picture of Angus (and love that name)!

I'm sure if you use the search tool at the top of the page you'll find an abundance of information about stripping. Good luck!
