About Hunt Terriers
The Hunt Terrier is a breed that can be considered both old and new; old because it can be traced back several centries to the British Isles through books and paintings as a dog that was commonly seen around farms in England, Ireland, Germany, Holland as a working terrier, they also played a part as foundation stock in what has become known as the Jack Russell Terrier today, as well as a number of other breeds. By the 20th Century, these terriers were near extinction, until a small number of breeders in Ireland and England developed an interest and continued to breed them. Over the last few decades they slowly crossed the Atlantic to America to a small number of breeders in the US, and are quickly gaining in popularity, as a small, compact terrier.
