FOX 

 TERRIER 



(Smooth 

 Coated) 



Color: White should predominate; brindle, red or liver markings are objection- 

 able. 



Height : 16 in. 



Weight : 20 Ibs. 



This dog generally presents a gay, lively and active appearance. He must also 

 possess speed and endurance, and the symmetry of an English Foxhound. He must 

 on no account be leggy, and like a well built hunter cover plenty of ground without 

 being long in the body. The skull is flat and moderately narrow, ears V-shaped and 

 small, dropping forward close to the cheek, jaws strong and muscular. Eyes dark 

 in color, small, full of fire and intelligence, neck clean and muscular without throati- 

 ness, chest deep but not broad, and the back should be short, straight and strong. His 

 legs viewed in any direction must be straight, well boned throughout, and short and 

 straight at the pasterns. His feet should be round and compact, tail set on rather high, 

 always docked, and carried gaily, but not over the back or curled, and should be well 

 coated. His coat is straight, flat, smooth, hard, dense and abundant. 



FOX 



TERRIER 



(Wire-haired) 



This variety is identical with the smooth coated Fox Terrier, except in the matter 

 of coat, which should be broken, and the harder and more wiry the texture the better. 

 On no account should it look or feel woolly or silky. The coat should not be too long 

 so as to give him a shaggy appearance.
