Adopt a Bodeguero Andaluz in Spain
The Bodeguero Andaluz (Ratonero Bodeguero Andaluz) is a small, lively terrier from Andalusian wine cellars — smart, brave and full of personality. You may find bodegueros or mixes at El Arca de Cuevas in Cuevas de San Marcos, Málaga (Andalusia).
Small Andalusian terrier
Traditionally used to control rodents in wineries, the bodeguero is compact, mostly white with black or tan markings, and very alert. They are popular family dogs in southern Spain.
Energy in a small package
They need play, walks and mental challenges. Many are good with children when socialised. Terrier instinct may affect small pets.
