About Terrier Dogs

Terriers are a diverse group of spirited, energetic dogs originally bred for hunting vermin and small game. They share common traits including boldness, intelligence, and a lively personality. Terrier mixes are popular shelter dogs that combine tenacity with affectionate, entertaining personalities.

Adopting a Terrier brings a feisty, loyal companion who is always ready for action. They are typically alert, brave, and entertaining, with personalities much larger than their size. Their energy and intelligence make them engaging companions for active households.
