短毛猎狐梗 Smooth Fox Terrier

The Smooth Fox Terrier, called the 'gentleman of the terrier world,' is a lively, gregarious terrier with a devil-may-care attitude, originally developed for Britain's traditional foxhunts. They are close relatives to Wire Fox Terriers .

Smooths are quite similar to their close relatives, Wire Fox Terriers. Like their crispy-coated cousins, Smooths stand no more than 15.5 inches at the shoulder. The distinguishing physical trait, besides coat type, is the head: A Smooth's head is more V-shaped than a Wire's. The dense, flat coat is predominantly white, with black, tan, or black-and-tan markings. These cleverly made hunters are strong and sturdy, but never coarse and clunky. Short-backed and symmetrical, they move with the unwavering grace of a pendulum clock.
