The Cairn Terrier is a playful and very friendly dog that loves meeting new people. They are very good family dogs but they are also terriers with an independent streak. They are tough and alert and will let you know when a visitor arrives.
They are good watchdogs and love digging, barking and chasing smaller animals. They are sensitive and very devoted to family members. They will follow you everywhere and they love to be indoors playing with children.
This dog breed can live indoors and is suitable for apartment living. You could also do a fenced yard for them so they get to run around conveniently. If you have a garden, you would be better off if it was off-limits to your dog.

This dog breed is prone to weight gain without its daily dose of exercise. So, you should make sure to take the dog on long walks or better still give him 20 to 30 minutes of vigorous playtime every day. This is necessary to keep him in good health and alert.
The Cairn Terrier has an outer and inner coat and this is quite easy to groom. Brush his coat daily and bathe him occasionally or as necessary. It is advisable not to bathe him too often as it softens the coat. Brush his teeth twice a week so that you clear all the bacteria buildup and for fresher breath.
Cut his nails too if they are not worn down naturally. Check his ears weekly for redness or signs of infection just so you catch it early. When grooming, you should examine your Cairn Terrier closely. Look for sores and rashes and allergic reactions or anything else that might indicate a problem.
