The australian terrier
They are natural watchdogs and will sound the alarm if a strange animal or person
approaches. As with other terriers, they can be dog-aggressive and somewhat bossy, and
care must be taken when living in a multi-pet household. In general, adult male terriers
do not get along well with other adult male dogs
Health
There are three completed health surveys for Australian Terriers Two surveys, one in
1997 and one in 2002, have been conducted by the Australian Terrier Club of
AmericaThe Club is currently collecting data for their next survey. The UK Kennel
Club has a 2004 survey, but it has a much smaller sample size than the Australian
Terrier Club of America surveys Some of the respondents in the American surveys were
from Australia, but none of the Australian Terrier clubs in Australia appear to have
conducted, or be in the midst of conducting, a survey.
