Now that you know what it takes to raise a Glen of Imaal Terrier, are you ready to take the next step to pet one?
How often should I bathe my Glen of Imaal Terrier?
Bathing should be done as needed, typically every 6-8 weeks, or when they get particularly dirty. Over-bathing can strip their coat of natural oils, so it’s important to use a gentle dog shampoo.
How do Glen of Imaal Terriers handle cold weather?
Their double coat provides some protection against the cold, but they should not be left outside for prolonged periods in extreme cold.
Are Glen of Imaal Terriers vocal dogs?
They are not excessively vocal but will bark to alert their owners of strangers or unusual occurrences. Proper training can help manage any unnecessary barking.
