Are you ready to welcome a furry companion into your life, one full of passion, love, and a touch of mischief? Delwires is your gateway to a world of ethical breeding, dedicated to producing low inbred coefficient Wire Haired Fox Terriers that will capture your heart.
Beyond Ordinary Solutions
Delwires is not your run-of-the-mill breeder. We recognize that we’re dealing with nature, and our approach is far from an “Off the shelf solution.” We meticulously select a suitable bitch, raised in a loving family environment, and in strict adherence to Lucy’s Law Guidelines. This commitment to ethical breeding takes time and care.

Patience is the key when you embark on this journey with us. From the moment a suitable bitch in season is selected, there is a 63 day gestation period before the new puppies arrive, and the litter sizes can vary. Be prepared for a waiting list; it’s possible that you may need to exercise some patience before welcoming a Delwires puppy into your life.

Probably the best Wire Haired Fox Terrier breeders
My name is Stephen, and my lifelong journey with Wire Haired Fox Terriers is a tale filled with heartwarming memories. From the day I was born, my father gifted me my very first Wire Haired Fox Terrier, Nellie. Those 14 unforgettable years were brimming with laughter, adventure, and unwavering companionship.
Nellie’s Legacy Lives On
In loving memory of Nellie, we’ve dedicated a page to her antics and adventures. So, take a moment to explore the heartwarming stories that will make you smile and reminisce.
A WHFT Lover for Over 60 Years
With over six decades of experience as a Wire Haired Fox Terrier owner, I have a piece of advice for those intrigued by this charismatic breed: immerse yourself in knowledge. Dive deep into understanding every facet of the breed and its charming quirks.
Fox Terriers: A World of Unparalleled Charisma
They’re an intriguing blend of funny, affectionate, loyal, intelligent, and sometimes, delightfully ignorant. But once you welcome a Fox Terrier into your life, you’ll discover why no other breed can quite compare. The journey of a Fox Terrier owner is an exhilarating one, with many surprises yet to be unveiled.
Wire and Smooth Haired: A Tale of Two Personalities
While some may claim the Wire and Smooth Haired Fox Terriers are distinct breeds, the truth is quite the opposite. I’ve raised and cherished both, and I can attest to their inseparable nature when it comes to temperament, tenacity, and that unique aloofness that only a Fox Terrier can gracefully exude.
A Compact Size with a Heart Full of Love
These small to medium-sized dogs boast a delightful, loving temperament. They relish exercise, though it need not be excessive. What they truly adore is a consistent routine, which brings them a sense of security and contentment.
The Myth of the Non-Shedding Fox Terrier
Contrary to popular belief, Fox Terriers do shed, but it’s a manageable affair with light grooming. Notably, their fur is less likely to trigger allergies in people sensitive to dog hair, akin to poodles.
Life with a Fox Terrier: A Never-Ending Party
Fox Terriers thrive at the center of any social gathering, embodying gregariousness, outgoing spirit, and a love for fun. These well-bred, socialized companions will fill your life with boundless love and everlasting joy. You’ll never feel alone with a Fox Terrier by your side!

Delwires Reviews
Posted on Google Hedley ShawTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From start to finish a very professional, friendly and supportive process. Stephen kept us fully up to date with photos and videos. We have had a WFT before but Stephen’s advice was extremely helpful. We have had our puppy a week now and she has settled in really well and is a joyful, healthy and inquisitive terrier. The mother was owned by Charles who was equally helpful. I can highly recommend without any reservations.Posted on Google Shane O GradyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kind, honest and straightforward people. A wealth of knowledge and experience with Wire haired fox terriers. I bred a litter of pups and Stephen was there at the end of the phone to help in anyway possiblePosted on Google Susan MolyneuxTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fabulous pup , temperament, beautiful looking girl. Stephen sorted everything out for us and we have never been so happy. Thanks for everything. Susan.Posted on Google Karen BagshawTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Stephen went out his way in looking after Archie for an extra week for us as we couldn't pick him up straight away due to other commitments. Right from the start, Stephen kept us informed on Archie's progress, with loads of pictures and videos. He is also happy to help with advice, etc. after collection. We would highly recommend Delwires as Archie is a wonderful, happy pup.Posted on Google Christine ChinnockTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a puppy from Stephen- Gertie, who has been absolutely fabulous, he was great at communicating and keeping us updated, would throughly recommend Thanks so much Chris and BryanPosted on Google Deborah RileyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recently approached Stephen for advice about the best time to get a new puppy with our elderly WFT ailing (probably from an inherited condition). Stephen was full of useful information about the breed and we soon made a decision to go ahead. We made contact again, and we now have a beautiful puppy. We saw her grow up, both in person and with regular photo updates. Our first WFT puppy ( from a Kennel Club approved breeder) was hard work, and required a lot of work to socialise her and kerb her avid biting, but it was worth it. I was nervous about taking on another, but my Delwires dog is a joy. She is well socialised, and quick to settle in and learn. She plays regularly with young children under supervision, which is something my first puppy never could do. The Delwires dogs are bred for good temperament and health, and this is invaluable. I am also confident that I could approach Stephen for any advice and help in the future.Posted on Google Karen RichmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have a beautiful 8 year old fox terrier Betsy Waterloo Surrender who is a real character and true to her breed .We have always kept in touch with Stephen Delaney, a font of knowledge who is always supportive helpful and kind. We now have our second Delwires fox terrier, Delwires Yara Hard as Stone who is 11 weeks old. She is amazing! Stephen has done an excellent job once again. She’s the perfect puppy and we’re extremely grateful for all Stephen’s hard work and supportPosted on Google Lorette CornerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We cannot recommend Delwires Wire Haired Fox Terriers highly enough. From first speaking to Stephen to having our puppy 'Ted' at home for the first week, we have been welcomed into the Delwires family and supported every step of the way. Communication was excellent, with photographs and video's being forwarded almost every day. Regular visits to see parents and the puppies, helped us to build a bond with our pup, which has meant he has settled in straight away at home. A special thanks goes to Stephen's grandchildren, who help to socialise the puppies from when they are born, as a result Ted has a fantastic attitude when meeting children and adults alike. If you are looking for a quality breeder, who cares passionately about the health and well-being of the breed and who is always there to offer you support, look no further.Posted on Google Michael ArndtTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. In 2024 my wife and I decided we wanted a Wire Fox Terrier. After reviewing dozens of breeders, we chose to get our Wire Fox Terrier from Delwires Wire Haired Fox Terriers. From the moment we made that decision, Stephen has been right there every step of the way to help us gain more knowledge about the breed in general as well as about our pup, Elmer. There was communication almost every day. And videos every week so we could watch him develop his personality. Importantly, Delwires was consistently able to guide us as we worked through all the various issues with bringing a dog to the US from the UK which was crucial as the US Govt changed the rules during the process. Our puppy arrived 100% healthy and has not had any issues in our time together. His attitude is fantastic, and as you can see from the pictures, Elmer is awful easy on the eyes! We’re biased, of course, but folks just cant help but smile when they see him. We would urge anyone looking to get a new puppy to contact Delwires and see if they are the right choice for their family as well!Load more
