1. Border Terrier
The Border Terrier was officially recognized by The Kennel Club in Great Britain in 1920, and
by the American Kennel Club (AKC) in 1930. The Border terrier was bred to have long enough
legs to keep up with the horses and other foxhounds, which travelled with them, and small
enough bodies to crawl in the burrows of foxes and chase them out so the hunters had a blank
shot. The foxhounds that travelled with them were not small enough to do the Border terrier's
job.
Description
 Identifiable by their otter-shaped heads, Border Terriers have a broad skull and
moderately short muzzle, and strong teeth.
 The V-shaped ears are on the sides of the head and fall towards the cheeks.
 Common coat colors are grizzle-and-tan, blue-and-tan, red, or wheaten.
 Whiskers are few and short.
 The tail is naturally moderately short, thick at the base and tapering.
 Narrow-bodied and well-proportioned, males stand 13 to 16 in (33 to 41 cm) at the
shoulder, and weigh 13 to 15.5 lb (5.9 to 7.0 kg); females 11 to 14 in (28 to 36 cm) and
11.5 to 14 pounds (5.2 to 6.4 kg).
 They are very versatile in families and as family pets.
Temperament and Needs
 Though sometimes stubborn and strong willed, border terriers are sound dogs.
 They are friendly and rarely aggressive.
 They are very good with children, but may chase cats and other small pets.
 Borders do well in task-oriented activities and have a surprising ability to jump high and
run fast given the size of their legs.
 The breed has excelled in agility training, but they are quicker to learn jumps and see-
saws than weaving poles.
 They take training for tasks very well, and are extremely trainable, and capable of
learning tricks quickly and competently.
 The border in recent years has been bred to harbor a more subtle character so are more
adaptable to apartment living if properly exercised.
Life Span
 The lifespan is 12-15 years
