Introduction

Compact and sturdy, the Australian Terrier is a spirited and affectionate breed. Standing small at about 10 inches, with a rough coat and a signature ‘topknot’ of hair, this terrier is both a loyal companion and a tenacious watchdog. They exhibit a high energy level and require ample exercise, but their intelligence and eagerness to please make them highly trainable. Known for their confidence and bravery, they also possess a keen sense of curiosity and playfulness, endearing them to families and active singles alike.
