Fell Terrier - Breeds

Breeds

Several named breeds have been developed from the Fell terrier type, such as the Lakeland Terrier, Patterdale Terrier, Border Terrier, Scorrier terrier and other locally developed breeds. All are sometimes called "Fell Terrier" interchangeably with their breed name. The "National Terriers Club LLC", has published a Fell Terrier standard. In Germany, the Jagdterrier was developed out of Fell terrier stock in the 1920s. Fell terriers may be descended from a very old type of long legged terrier referred to as the rough-coated Black and Tan, similar to today's Welsh Terrier.

Famous quotes containing the word breeds:

    There are two kinds of men, and only two, and that young man is one kind. He is high-minded, he is pure, he’s the kind of man that the world pretends to look up to, and in fact despises. He is
    the kind of man who breeds unhappiness, particularly in women.
    Robert Bolt (1924–1995)

    Death is the king of this world: ‘tis his park
    Where he breeds life to feed him. Cries of pain
    Are music for his banquet
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    National isolation breeds national neurosis.
    Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)
