The Welsh Terrier is a little calmer than the other long-legged terriers. He likes to swim and some like to dig. Some can be difficult to housebreak, especially bitches. The Welsh Terrier is bright enough to understand quickly what you want of it but is also cunning enough to try to divert you from your intentions. Give these dogs constant variety in their training and remain consistent towards them.
Some lines are prone to skin and eye problems.
The Welsh Terrier will do okay in an apartment if it is sufficiently exercised. They are very active indoors and a small yard is sufficient. The Welsh Terrier is untiring. It is always ready to play with a ball and to run and gambol off the leash in the open countryside. On the other hand, if you occasionally find it impossible to spend this kind of time with your dog, it will accept it without making a fuss.
