Australian terrier

Small low-set dog with a long body and straight back. Its straight, rough coat is about 5–6.5 cm/2–2.5 in long, and blue or silver-grey, and tan or clear red or sandy in colour. It has a long head with a topknot of soft hair and ears either pricked or dropped forwards towards the front. Australian terriers are about 25 cm/10 in high and weigh 4.5–5 kg/10–11 lb.

The Australian terrier traces its ancestry to the Cairn, Norwich, and Yorkshire terriers.
