Australian Terrier
Australianterrieri
The Australian Terrier is one of Australia's oldest native breeds, developed in the 19th century by early settlers who crossed terriers brought from England, including the Yorkshire and the Skye Terriers. Bred for their tenacity and skill in hunting vermin, they became invaluable working dogs on farms, eventually gaining recognition for their small size, bold personality, and distinctive rough coat.
