Borderterrier

The ancestors of the border terrier can be traced back to the Scottish-English border region. Farmers in this region wanted a dog that was athletic, brave, intelligent, and driven to help catch and deter foxes that were a threat to their sheep. The terriers had to have long legs to keep up on the hunt but small bodies that would allow them to burrow into a fox’s den and flush it out.

Border terriers are bright and eager to please. But they also can be independent thinkers and stubborn about when they want to obey.

He’s intelligent, loyal, fearless, loving, determined and has a good-natured personality.
