Imaal's are very loyal and laid back dogs. They possess incredible stamina and when stimulated, can work almost non-stop. Having said this, they can also have lazy moods where they will often have to be dragged out for a walk. The Imaal Terrier makes an excellent watchdog and often forgets its size and charges into action. This can cause problems with other dogs as their hunting instinct has not been bred out, and often leads to confrontations.

33-35cm, weight: 14-16kg.

A healthy breed with little in the way of problems. As with many small breeds, degenerative eye problems have been recorded, as has Hip Dysplasia.

When out on a walk this breed has a tendency to chase any other animal it sees, including other dogs. This can make them difficult to control at times and requires strong training.

Remember! All breed profiles are general and every dog is an individual.
