Which terrier was created first?

Most terrier breeds were developed in Great Britain and Ireland. They were used to control rats, rabbits, and foxes both over and under the ground. Some larger terriers were also used to hunt badgers. In fact, the word terrier comes from the Middle French terre, derived from the Latin terra, meaning earth. Terrier is also the modern french for "burrow". The Kerry Blue Terrier and Airedale, however, are particularly noted for tackling river rats and otters in deep water. Different localities raised terriers suited to their hunting or vermin control needs. Terriers were crossed with hunting dogs, fighting dogs, and other terriers.


Why do Dobermans have the name pinscher?

The word ''Pinscher'' is German for Terrier. However, as the Doberman Pinscher is not actually a Terrier, in the UK the word ''Pinscher'' was dropped and the breed is called the ''Dobermann'' instead. In other countries the word ''Pinscher'' was retained as the Dobermann is believed to have originated from Terrier breeds and therefore does have distant Terrier blood.
