When deciding b/t a male and female welsh. Which one is more apt to stay around the family? Asked differently, which sex of dog is easier to train?

females far more difficult

I have 5 other dogs at the moment. 2 GSD males, 3 Malinois (2 males and 1 female). I would like to purchase a Welsh Terrier male pup, but am not at all sure how he will fit into the picture with all the larger dogs. All of our dogs have strong personalities as they are working dogs and the last thing i would want is to put something cheeky into the equation which would come off 2nd best.
Am i being over-dramatic or would the Welshie be fine?

A welsh in that bunch would rule the roost. Ours wAs consistently one of the more playful and bossy at our dog park.

How many puppies do Welsh Terriers usually have?

4-5 is usual, although litters of 6 are not rare.

I have a welsh terrier pup - almost five months old. After having her for a couple of weeks I noticed she was scratching incessantly. Vet diagnosed her with mange and said she got it from where she was bred. She was treated and is now mange free but still scratches a lot. Vet said she might have food allergies. Does anyone else have a welsh with food allergies?

My Welsh is 10 years old and has had skin problems since he was 18 months old. He has flea allergy and atopica (environmental allegeries). I've had him on allergy shots, tavist, skin supplements, you name it. Now he is borderline Cushings Syndrome too. But we love him dearly and he is a great dog.

My welsh has food allergies and once I switched him to Hypoallergenic food the itching stopped. Hope this helps

Yes I do! Thanks for the question. My dog's suffering just like yours! I even had to shave her to the skin, and I found she had fleas, lots and lots of fleas. Anyway, she's doing fine now, and I hope your pup gets better too!
