Characteristics,
care, health & breeder listings below

 | Height: 10'
- 14"
Color: Any
color except merle or albino |
 |
Basic
Requirements: American Hairless
Terriers are indoor dogs that do well in smaller homes and apartments;
however, they need
regular walks or playtime. Occasional bathing will help to keep the
skin healthy. |
 |
Temperament:
The American
Hairless Terrier generally gets along very well with children. One caution is with very
young children. As puppies, American Hairless Terriers are small and
they can be
accidentally injured by a well-meaning but overly enthusiastic child. Also, any dog, regardless of breed, can growl or snap
if pushed too far by any child. It is important that parents take
precautions to prevent accidental injuries to the puppy, teach the
children proper handling and interaction with dogs, as well as
supervise young children at all times with any dog. This dog is intelligent, trainable and enjoys activity such as obedience &
agility.
