Can Border terriers have curly tails?

Well jamiegirl, you need to do a little more research, because they can. Even though it does not happen often, it does happen. The same as most Border Terriers have slick wiry coats, you can get them with long coats as well, with a curl tail that has long hair on it. If you are unaware of this, you may want to check out an upstanding breeder in Montana that has a beautiful little guy. It is Big Sky Border Terriers. Like I said, it does not happen often, but it does happen.
