What is the best terrier for a pet?

terriers have a lot of variances between breeds. some are short some are tall, some are energetic some are lazy, but by getting a dog with mixed breeding you get all of the good traits of the dog, and eliminate most of the bad. If you want to have a dog with papers, a rat terrier is a good choice. Its a newer breed, so inbreeding hasn't had an opportunity to take hold, and the dog is bred for its stoutness, and livability. They have very few health problems, are not overly energetic, and have good personalities. Their temperament is fairly neutral, so they are a good choice for being around kids, and their size makes them ideal for apartment/city life. they are loyal, easy to train, and not excessive yappers. They need a fair amount of exercise, but are content to just relax if you are. Oh, and by the way, they are cute as hell!!

What was the Manchester Terrier first bred for?

The Manchester Terrier is the oldest known terrier breed. Developed as a rat hunter in nineteenth century Manchester, England by a man named John Hulme. It has earned the nickname of "rat terrier" because of it's tenacity at catching rats and mice. It is considered to be the best vermin hunting breed. In a British contest one Manchester named Billy was said to have killed 100 rats in only 6 minutes and 13 seconds. The Manchester Terrier developed by crossing Black & Tan Terrier and the Whippet. There are two types of Manchester Terrier: the Standard and Toy. The Toy variety became popular during the reign of Queen Victoria, when smaller dogs were very popular. The Standard Manchester still retains the ability to be a prized ratter, but the breed as a whole is a companion dog. The Manchester Terrier has gone down in popularity. The Manchester Terrier was used in the development of several breeds, among them the Doberman Pinscher, and the Airedale Terrier.
