Border Terrier puppies for sale across Canada

Breed history

The Border Terrier originated in the rugged border region between England and Scotland in the 18th century. Developed as a working terrier, it was bred to hunt foxes, rabbits, and other small animals on farms and in open countryside. The breed’s compact size, strong build, and fearless temperament made it ideal for going to ground and working alongside larger hunting dogs. Over time, the Border Terrier became valued not only for its hunting ability but also for its friendly and adaptable nature, making it a popular companion dog as well as a working terrier.
