15 Amazing Facts About Bedlington Terriers You Probably Never Knew

The Bedlington Terrier is a devoted friend and keen traveler with a dose of healthy selfishness and a decent supply of good nature. The breed is recommended as companions when you want to have a terrier, but there is no desire to acquire a stubborn dominant, controlled exclusively by hunting instincts. The Bedlingtons are moderately frisky, but not aggressive, ready to obey a stronger leader, but not dissolve in him, like to drive small animals, but do not get into a rage and are able to curb their own anger. And these pussies also have a standard glossy appearance, so with such a pet, you will definitely not get lost in the crowd.

The Bedlington Terrier was developed in the north of England, but where he came from is anybody’s guess.

One theory has it that he traveled with Rom, or gypsies, who used him to poach game on the estates they passed by.

His talents in ridding the land of rats, badgers, and other vermin drew the attention of the local squires, who acquired some of the dogs for themselves.
