Robust, healthy working terrier cross with very few serious hereditary conditions
Very low grooming requirements — the short, dense coat needs only a weekly brush
Highly energetic and athletic — an excellent companion for active outdoor owners
Among the most affordable small crossbreeds in the UK
Extremely high prey drive makes the breed unsuitable for households with cats or small animals
Very high exercise needs for a small dog — requires 60 minutes of vigorous activity daily
Strong terrier independence makes recall unreliable and formal training challenging without experience
Not recommended for families with young children or novice dog owners without terrier experience
