7. What is another name for the Portuguese Warren Hound? How many coat types do you see in this breed? How many size variations?
 
8. You are brought a white Miniature Schnauzer at a UKC show. The owner tells you the dog was imported from Germany. What do you do?
 
9. Which short-legged Scenthound must show white markings on all four sides of the dog?
