I am using biblatex to format my references and I want to format them according to
<LastName> <FirstNameInitial>, <LastName> <FirstNameInitial>
and so on. In order to remove the standard dot/fullstop after the initial I have tried to use
Modify the last-name first-name separator in biblatex's authortitle
The problem here is that it only formats the first author after the desired standard. A minimum working example (copied from the above question) is given below. I am almost sure that it is some small part of the answer given in the linked question that needs to be changed, but my biblatex coding skills are at a minium. A picture of the output code is shown in the above linked question but I can not post it here.
\RequirePackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents}{sample.bib}
@ARTICLE{liu:11,
author = {Peter Fox and Richard Rabbit and Franc Bird},
title = {Animals are the better humans},
journal = {Horse and Hound},
year = {2011},
volume = {10},
pages = {11--15}
}

As pointed out by Audrey in a comment, one should amend the solution linked in the OP's comment with setting
terseinits=true
and tinkering with\DeclareNameAlias
for the name sorting order.
