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.
