Smooth-Coated:

(Examples include Pointers, Whippets, Boxers, Bulldogs, Chihuahuas, Doberman Pinschers, Boston Terriers): In general, the smooth coat is clean and odor-free. It is close to the body, and individual hairs are short and stiff. The skin is soft, and it is often sensitive to harsh products, tools and/or equipment. Long periods in cold or extreme weather without coats or jackets are not appropriate for smaller breeds with this coat, and all breeds are more prone to insect bites than those with other coats.
