Smooth Fox Terrier

Their dense, flat coat is mainly white, with black, tan, or black and tan markings. Their head and muzzle is flat, with a V-shaped skull. They are hunters with a strong prey drive, so they love to play fetch and dig in the yard- often described as outgoing and inquisitive creatures, and loving and affectionate family members.
