The Welsh Terrier is a
breed of
dog, one of many
terrier breeds. It is suited for hunting
fox, birds, and
badgers and for being kept as a pet. The Welsh Terrier originates from
Wales and has existed since the 1800s. Its origins lie in the Old English
Black and Tan Terrier that existed in
England as early as the
13th century. It also existed in Wales and it was that sort that finally was registered by The Kennel Club under the name Welsh Terrier. Until
1900, it was called the "Old English Terrier" or "Black and Tan Rough Haired Terrier". The breed has been recognised since
1886 and is more common than the
Airedale Terrier or the
Fox Terrier.

Welsh terriers can live in cities as long as they are given enough . This tough, tenacious dog has limitless energy to run and play. Appearance
