Where Every Paw Feels at Home.
Also known as Toy Manchester Terrier
A sleek little ratter with a quick mind and quicker feet
Descended from working rat-catching terriers, the English Toy Terrier is elegant, fine-boned and sleek, with a glossy black and tan coat. It is quick, alert and affectionate, needs little grooming, and feels the cold and fragile knocks.

Yes, it is small and adaptable. It can be alert and vocal at noises, so training a quiet cue and daily exercise help.
