Terriers have their own issues. They are meant to pursue and often
catch. It is the only (mixed) breed I was not successful with. They
can be hard-wired and the oddest thing can re-wire them. you have to
be on your toes with a terrier. You want a laid back dog? get a
labrador. Or a golden retriever or a mix of those in a mixed breed
from the shelter. A shelter dog is usually thankful forever.
