Lakeland Terrier 🐾
The Lakeland Terrier is a small breed, they appear square with a rectangular head, finished by a beard and a short body with a twelve o’clock tail. A well-trained Lakeland is an ideal family pet and can be good with older families. Though relatively small, they are active dogs that love to race round and run and play with a ball, but are adaptable and if the weather is bad, will be content to sit at the fireside or preferably on the owner’s lap.

Did you know?
The Lakeland Terrier is a rare breed in Australia and taking one on a walk will initiate friendly curiosity. People will ask if you have a miniature Airedale.
