My IT is super chill as well. Outside he can run for hours, but at home he's mostly just sleeping. He only goes nuts inside if he doesn't get enough exercise. Maybe that's the key to a calm IT 🤷♂️
Oh she’s lovely Rowan. Got our girl two weeks ago. Pip. She’s turned our lives upside down. We love her to bits. She looks exactly like Twiglet. Brilliant video. Pip is now 14 weeks and has changed so much in the short time we’ve had her. These dogs bring so much joy don’t they? I love the way she looks at you when you’re brushing her. Best wishes to you all!!
Amazing! I hope you have as much fun as we do. They really are best companions and I think Pip is an excellent name. I hope you and your family had a happy Christmas :)
Ours is coming up on one year, and, except for the early morning scratchies, a completely different temperament and experience. Ours does have more freedom and space, and takes full advantage of it …. trees squirrels, patrols the fenced backyard, has established her own nap times and daily schedule, and it actually works for us as well. Plays well with our kids’ dogs when they come to visit, but has to be kept separate from our other dogs. Will play ball with you every waking moment, with tail wagging the whole time. Pure speed and agility. Will make you so upset one moment, and make you cry the next, with how cute and precious she is. She loves to “help” and be in on projects. Her life is very much entwined in ours, both at home and at work, but watching this video all I can say is you got it easy. 😊
Amazing! Twiglet would love to patrol for squirrels everyday, its a real shame she doesn't have a garden. Precious is a good word for Irish Terriers they really are one of a kind. Its a shame your dogs don't get on ours loves playing with other dogs and going to doggy daycare
@@rowanwanstall6599Ours gets on with other dogs, just not our other dogs. We have a 14yo Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a 10yo Mini Schnauzer (which acts like a full-sized Schnauzer!). They’ve been together all along and are settled in their ways, but this IT came in like the Tasmanian Devil in the cartoons and we decided we would just have to hope that the IT would settle down at some point. Right now they live separate lives under the same roof.
Ohh I see that makes sense! Our neighbours dog was older and had no interest in a crazy IT running around with her pants on her head. We can only hope that they calm down one day 😂
Now, that's a dog's dog! Intelligent, frisky, easy on the eyes . . . with gams to die for. I've been wanting such a pup, but the breed is very hard to find in the States.
Wow Thanks for the update! Been wondering if we would ever get another update. She looks so calm! May I ask how tall she is now and how much does she weigh?
Hi, great video and lovley dog. Is her breed prone to barking much, and is she a high energy type of dog. Hope you don’t mind the questions. Regards Martin.
Hi glad you liked the video :) I would say yes. We've had two irish terriers and both barked, not constantly but when exited or when someone comes to the front door. Most of the time if you told them to stop barking they would make weird grumbling noises instead. They are very high energy and need a lot of exercise and also mental stimulation or they get bored and start destroying things. Lots of sniffing seems to be good and helps to keep them entertained and calm or those toys where you hide food inside them. Hope this helps
I got an IT and he’s the best. When did Twiglet’s ear(s) go up? The breeder and my mum wanted me to glue my dogs ears down :(. One ear was up and one was down at 3 months. Now both are down and have no sign of going up at 4.5 months. I think my mom massaged his ears or something because they looked to be going up and we’re like half way up and then out of nowhere they became totally deflated. They kinda look to be going up again. Now they’re like bent sideways like airplane ears. I hope they go up, or at least one like Twiglets.
Twiglet had both ears up between 1-3 months and then at probably six months she had one up one down and its been like that ever since. We heard about glueing the ears but that seemed cruel. I've heard people massage the ears but I'm not sure how much massaging you would have to do for it to change anything. I think some irish terriers have ears down, some up and some a bit of both.
Haha very good question. Before Twiglet we had an irish terrier called Marmite who was a puppy of our friends dog who we loved. Once you’ve got to know how much character the breed has its hard to want a normal well behaved dog instead.
@@rowanwanstall6599 LOL Yes character is everything in choosing a dog, my friend. A happy life to you and yours, and of course Twiglet too. Cheers mate.

OMG, what a super cute dog!
I’ve never seen such a chilled IT. Ours is 4 years old and is still a complete goof ball.
She still has her moments but compared to some other Irish Terriers I’ve met she is relatively calm 😂

We like the look of Twiglet’s mattress. Can you please tell us what it is and where it’s from? We’re in the UK. Thanks.
Her bed is an Elli-Bo pet bed :)
And then she just has lots of blankets on top in the winter

She's lovely, but what made you get an Irish terrier?

@@rowanwanstall6599 LOL
Yes character is everything in choosing a dog, my friend.
A happy life to you and yours, and of course Twiglet too.
Cheers mate.
Does this breed shed?
No they don’t. You have to get them clipped a few times a year or you can strip them with a brush or a stripping stone. Hope that helps
I don't think that he likes you two.
Why do you say that 😅 She is a very stubborn dog
