American Hairless Terriers
Kalon American Hairless Terriers
The first American Hairless Terrier (AHT) appeared in Louisiana in 1972 and quickly developed a loyal and devoted following. On January 1, 2004, the AHT achieved full breed recognition from the United Kennel Club (UKC). The AHT is an intelligent and loving companion that ranges in size from 10" to 16" at the shoulder.
Many dog lovers with allergies that prevented them from owning a dog have discovered the hairless AHT to be a perfect fit. The AHT has gained many loyal admirers all over the world and today the breed can be found in Finland, England, the Czech Republic and Japan.
Like other hairless dog breeds, the AHT comes in two varieties (hairless & coated). However the hairless AHT is unique from all other hairless dog breeds. The feel of the AHT skin is very different and hard to describe. Some have called it a suede or micro-fiber feel. Hairless puppies are born with a light 'birth coat' which they lose by the time they are 8-12 wks old, leaving them completely hairless. Unlike other hairless breeds, the hairless AHT has a full set of well-rooted teeth. The hairless AHT is very unique in the dog world because of these things and because the genetics of the breed is so different from other hairless breeds.
Kalon is honored to have acquired some wonderful, top quality AHTs and we hope in a small way, we can contribute to this breed's bright future.
