The fox terrier is a small dog with long, flat and rather narrow head, strong jaws and small V-shaped ears. It has become almost universally a household pet, especially in America, Canada and England. The nose is black, the eyes small and the body strong.
The color is usually white, with black or tan markings. The fox terrier was formerly used to drive
foxes from their holes, hence the name. These dogs live about fifteen years, and their weight averages twenty pounds. The illustration is that of the more popular smooth-coated terrier; some have hair that is hard and wiry.
