	Dog and Kennel Magazine Border Terrier Breed Profile
		Terriers like the ones just described had existed in England as far back as the 11th century, if the evidence of tapestries can be credited, yet those early terriers cannot be authenticated as Border terriers.
		Border terriers have been known to remain hale and hardy into their midteens, but despite their longevity, they are, as most breeds are, subject to genetic diseases, the most troublesome of which are hip dysplasia, heart defects and progressive retinal atrophy (PRA).
		The Border terrier was once described in Britain as having an ancestry that was equal parts "monkey, lion, hedgehog and frog, with none of their redeeming features." What's more, the Border, like all other terriers, has been made redundant in the work force by the progress of civilization and housing tracts.

	Border Terrier
		Border Terriers are relatively easily trained, although they can develop a cat-like independence and, when kept as part of a group of dogs, can have confusion recognising that each dog has a different name (they occasionally respond to them all).
		Border Terriers are generally unsuitable for homes where there are rabbits, cats (except Maine Coons), smaller breeds of dogs, or other similar pets, as they will attack and kill all animals smaller than themselves; they were bred for this purpose.
		Border Terriers are generally hardy and long-lived dogs with few health problems; however, they also have a very high resistance to pain and so a Border Terrier, when it is unwell, will very often appear perfectly healthy.

	Border Terrier Canada
		For Centuries, terriers fitting the description of the Border were in use by shepherds, farmers, and huntsmen who wanted a game terrier with sufficient leg to follow a horse in the rugged hill country but small enough to be able to go to ground after marauding hill foxes.
		The physical and mental qualities that should be "part and parcel" of the Border are the results of generations of breeding and enable the Border to do his job with the least amount of injury to himself and with the greatest amount of efficiency possible.
		Since the Border Terrier is a working terrier of a size to go to ground and able, within reason, to follow a horse, his conformation should be such that he be ideally built to do his job.

	The Standard
		Border terriers generally fit this bill, though some are too hard for their own good and can end up being retired early due to high veterinary bills, a lost eye, lost teeth, etc. A dog should be using his voice to bolt and hold a fox, not using his teeth to kill a fox.
		A terrier should have a span that is not much larger than that of a vixen (this is the animal that sets the standard in the real world), and that is not much more than 14 inches in size.
		Two working dogs -- the Jack Russell Terrier and the Border Collie -- were recently admitted to the AKC in direct opposition to the two largest breed clubs which wanted to continue to put an emphasis on the working ability of their dogs.
