American Hairless Terrier - Great choice of dog companion for allergy sufferers
The American Hairless Terrier is similar in build to a medium-sized Rat Terrier (about 5-16 lbs), from whom this breed is a direct descendant.*
For allergy-sufferers seeking a dog companion, this can be a great choice.**
Common personality traits you will find in an American Hairless Terrier:
- Intelligent
- Alert
- Playful - in a typical feisty, lively, fearless Terrier sort of way
- Enjoys challenging games
- Loving
- Can live in an apartment, but yards are best though they love to dig
- Can be good with children -- especially if raised with from puppyhood
They do not have specific breed-related concerns. They can get rashes and pimples (unlike other dogs they have sweat glands on their
entire body. They do not drool or pant!). Rashes from grass allergies are not uncommon. These types of dogs do need sunscreen or some sort of clothing covering, so please
remember to put on your dog companion before any sun exposure.
They enjoy challenging games and outdoor walks.
* In the early 1970s, a completely hairless female Terrier was born to a Rat Terrier.
** Please note: An allergy test is recommended before buying any breed where allergies or asthma are a problem.
