hello i have a whippet cross fox terrier. we were told he was pure bred, but upon closer research he is not pure bred. looks similair to a foxy, but a rather thin sparse coat like a whippet. has strong back legs, fox terrier face but a whippet snout. Very energetic dog, but prone to separation anxiety. An inside dog, not a kennel dog. very loving :) look it up on Google, "fox terrier whippet cross" on images. one there looks very similaiar to my doggie :)
