I know you are worried and you have a genuine concern for them but maybe you should just wait and see. If their grandpa just died, this puppy might be lifting their spirits and you don't want to burst their bubble and get them to worry. If the puppy continues to look ill, then I would recommend telling them.
Here are pictures of cairn terriers. Their coats are supposed to be "weatherproof" which to me sounds a bit wiry. |
