Basic Requirements: Cairn Terriers love to chase things, so they should be kept on a leash when outside of the yard. They also like to dig, so fences should be secure at the base to prevent escapes. Weekly brushing and occasional bathing will help to control light shedding. Stripping of the coat should be done every six months.  A moderately sized yard is needed.

Temperament: Cairn Terriers are playful, alert, and good with children.
