Frequently, you will hear references to a "Terrier" front. This term should, more properly, be described as a "Fox Terrier" front, since it is by no means the correct front for all terriers. Above are illustrated three types of fronts. Front A is a "Terrier" front.Note the very short upright, humerus bone.
Front B is a fairly non-specialized canine front. This would be correct for a Rat Terrier.
Front C is a Scottie front.
Notice that all three fronts have about the same amount of layback and angulation. The "Terrier" front is distinguished by the shorter upper arm and the almost upright pastern.
