About Humphrey

About Border Terrier Dogs

Border Terriers are small, tough working terriers with a distinctive otter-shaped head and wiry coat. Originally bred to hunt foxes along the English-Scottish border, they have the stamina and drive of a much larger dog packed into a compact body. They are one of the most balanced terrier breeds.

Adopting a Border Terrier brings an affectionate, adaptable companion into your home. They are good with children, get along with other dogs, and can happily live in an apartment or a country house. Their moderate exercise needs and friendly nature make them versatile family pets.
