I love teaching our Cairn Terriers new things. They love learning and most of the time what I teach them isn't hard. The Cairn Terrier breed is smart, agile, and full of energy. They thrive on learning new things or they get bored. My next project will be a fun one, and I'd like to take you along with me while I teach them.
