Summary
About Wire Fox Terrier
Wire Fox Terriers are small, sturdy, energetic hunting terriers with a bold, lively nature and strong prey drive. They have a low-shedding wiry coat needing regular stripping, are intelligent but independent, need consistent training, daily exercise, mental stimulation, and thorough grooming.
About Azawakh
The Azawakh is an ancient Sahel sighthound: tall, ultra-lean and fast, bred by Tuareg nomads for guarding and hunting. Loyal and gentle with family but aloof with strangers, it needs secure fencing, ample daily exercise, a soft warm bed, and protection from cold due to its thin, short coat.
