The spirited Australian terrier is descended from
cairn, Skye, and Yorkshire terriers, among others. It was used as a
ratter in 19th-century Australia. Although originally bred to kill
small vermin, they may be able to live peacefully with cats if
raised with them, but pity the poor dog that picks a fight with an
Aussie. These terriers are pugnacious and tenacious--they will not
back down. Australian terriers are affectionate, entertaining, and
energetic little dogs. They do fine with young children if raised
with them and if they are not teased.
The outercoat is harsh and straight, about two to
three inches long; the undercoat is short and soft. Coat color is
blue and tan, solid red, or sandy. This dog needs to be brushed two
to three times a week. Daily exercise should include a romp in a
secured area and a few brisk walks.
