  The Terrier is a highly favored companion animal and an exceptional family pet!

  Feisty and full of energy, these dog breeds have been dubbed as having a distinctive 'terrier personality'. The Terrier is a rambunctious and assertive dog. They are quite intelligent and love to play. Many types of Terriers are extremely friendly with people, and will capture our hearts.

   Terrier breeds were bred to hunt and kill vermin, burrow into dens, and dig out prey, Consequently they have little natural tolerance for other animals, including other dogs. However, with specialized training and socialization, most can become more reliable with other pets. These are active little dogs that need to be kept busy. If not provided with things to do they may very well dig up the yard, but given activities they will be a fun and enthusiastic participant.
