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 Posavac Hound
Medium, athletic Croatian scent hound with a short red‑and‑white coat and gentle expression. Affectionate and family‑oriented, yet strongly driven to track game. Needs 1–2 hours of daily exercise plus mental work. Generally healthy but rare outside Croatia, so breeders can be hard to find.
