Parson Russell Terrier vs Smooth Fox Terrier

Parson Russell Terriers are medium‑small, long‑legged, athletic fox‑hunting terriers with smooth or broken white coats. Energetic, intelligent, bold, and affectionate, they need plenty of exercise, consistent training, mental stimulation, and clear boundaries in an active home.

The Smooth Fox Terrier is a small, athletic, people‑oriented terrier with a short, easy‑care coat. Energetic, intelligent and independent, it needs plenty of exercise, training and mental stimulation. Affectionate yet intense, especially with small animals, it suits active, consistent owners.
