Shar-Terrier

The Shar-Terrier is a sturdy, alert companion with the compact muscular build of a Bull Terrier softened by the looser facial skin, small folded ears, and broad muzzle of a Shar-Pei. They are affectionate and devoted with their family, usually playful and good with children, but they can be a bit stubborn and reserved with unfamiliar dogs, making early socialization especially important.
