Smooth Fox Terrier

Bold. alert. Yours.

Your Smooth Fox Terrier is standing in the middle of the room right now, vibrating with an energy that defies their compact size, looking at you with those dark, keen eyes that are simultaneously calculating the fastest route to the squirrel outside and memorizing the exact location of every treat in the house. That sleek, flat coat, white with those sharp black or tan markings, fits them like a tailored suit, and they wear it like they know they're the best-dressed dog at every party they weren't invited to.
