I would like to put my two cents in on this subject. I run Dooks and
Crooks Ferret Rescue here in Ames. I also own a Westhighland Terrier
named Charlie. Charlie was brought into our house at 10 weeks old. He
has literally grown up with ferrets at his feet. Our little Charlie would
not hurt a flea let alone his only other animal play mate. Now my point
is this, not every terrier has the want to kill small animals. I believe
with caution, education, socialization and training a young terrier can
be introduced to live with ferrets. I would never leave any animal alone
with my ferrets, that is just being smart, but I let my terrier, Charlie
in the playroom when I am in there too. He loves playing with the ferrets
in the tubes and sharing a treat of Furo-Tone too.
That is just my two cents,
thanks Candi
