American Kennel Club - Skye Terrier The Skye Terrier is a dog of style, elegance and dignity: agile and strong with sturdy bone and hard muscle. Long, low and level-he is twice as long as he is high-he is covered with a profuse coat that falls straight down either side of the body over oval-shaped ribs. The hair well feathered on the head veils forehead and eyes to serve as protection from brush and briar as well as amid serious encounters with other animals. He stands with head high and long tail hanging and moves with a seemingly effortless gait. He is strong in body, quarter and jaw. http: //akc.org/breeds/skye_terrier/index.cfm
American Kennel Club - Smooth Fox Terrier The dog must present a generally gay, lively and active appearance; bone and strength in a small compass are essentials; but this must not be taken to mean that a Fox Terrier should be cloddy, or in any way coarse--speed and endurance must be looked to as well as power, and the symmetry of the Foxhound taken as a model. The Terrier, like the Hound, must on no account be leggy, nor must he be too short in the leg. He should stand like a cleverly made hunter, covering a lot of ground, yet with a short back, as stated below. http: //akc.org/breeds/smooth_fox_terrier/index...
American Kennel Club - Spinone Italiano Muscular dog with powerful bone. Vigorous and robust, his purpose as hardworking gun dog is evident. Naturally sociable, the docile and patient Spinone is resistant to fatigue and is an experienced hunter on any terrain. His hard textured coat is weather resistant. His wiry, dense coat and thick skin enable the Spinone to negotiate underbrush and endure cold water that would severely punish any dog not so naturally armored. He has a remarkable tendency for an extended and fast trotting gait. The Spinone is an excellent retriever by nature. http: //akc.org/breeds/spinone_italiano/index.c...
American Kennel Club - Staffordshire Bull Terrier The Staffordshire Bull Terrier is a smooth-coated dog. It should be of great strength for its size and, although muscular, should be active and agile. http: //akc.org/breeds/staffordshire_bull_terri...
American Kennel Club - Swedish Vallhund The Swedish Vallhund, also known as Vasgotaspets and Swedish Cattledog, has been recorded in the Foundation Stock Service since 1999. http: //akc.org/breeds/swedish_vallhund/index.c...
