Summary

About English Toy Terrier
Small, elegant black-and-tan toy terrier with a fine but athletic build and low‑maintenance short coat. Loyal and people-focused, often bonding closely with one person. Lively, intelligent and sensitive, needs daily exercise, mental stimulation and protection from temperature extremes.
About Canaan Dog
The Canaan Dog is an ancient, medium-sized, agile desert breed from the Middle East. Alert and watchful, it is a natural guardian: reserved with strangers yet loyal and affectionate with family. It has a weather-resistant, easy-care double coat and generally enjoys good health and longevity.
