Summary
About Skye Terrier
Skye Terriers are long, low terriers from Scotland with a straight, floor-length double coat. Bred to hunt fox and badger, they are calm, loyal and often bond closely with one person. Reserved with strangers, they need moderate exercise, regular grooming, and thoughtful, positive training.
About Large Münsterländer
Medium–large, athletic German gundog with a distinctive black‑and‑white, ticked coat. Intelligent, people‑oriented and affectionate, yet independent with strong hunting and prey drive. Needs experienced, active owners, plenty of daily exercise, training and mental stimulation to stay content.
