June 11th, 2009 · No Comments

Airedale, Bedlington, Cairns, Cesky, Fox, Jack Russel, Irish, Yorkshire (Yorkie), American Pit Bull, and bull terrier are just some of the terrier breeds. These dogs are very popular throughout the world. As you read this article, you are going to learn about to of the best terrier breeds. Terriers as pets (type of terriers including Yorkshire Terrier) is what you will be reading about.

The American Pit Bull Terrier is one of the most popular types of terrier. Unfortunately, this breed has gained a somewhat notorious reputation as being vicious when they became a popular choice for dog fights. This poor breed would be intentionally bred for quantity, rather than quality, and some owners would even abuse them as pups to raise them to be ferocious in dog fights in which they would bet on the dog. This is a very unfair and limited portion of the pit bull’s history. What about Sergeant Stubby—the pit bull who took part in World War II? He began as a morale boost for the 102nd infantry, yet soon became a valued soldier when he began warning his unit of poisonous gas, found wounded men in “no man’s land,” and could warn of the incoming artillery shells.

Next, we are going to tell you about the Yorkshire Terrier. This is a pretty little creature that has a silky coat that is very long and parts down the spine. They have a head that is rather flat with V shaped ears. These pets, just like any of the other terriers are eager to go on an adventure.

Additional information about terriers can be found online, in books, or through a veterinarian. Although some of them require quite a lot of grooming, such as regular brushing and bathing, others are much less maintenance. Overall, they are loyal to the core and brave to boot. They also have tons of energy, so if you’re looking for a jogging partner or even a “partner in crime,” this mischievous breed could be perfect for you!
