Because
you have asked me for so many breeds I didn't have, I created
the "Best of Breed" Head Study series, which I'm adding
more breeds to regularly.

Group
4 - Terrier Breeds
The
word "Terrier" comes from the Latin "terra"
which means earth. Thus Terriers were bred to pursue and kill
vermin such as badgers, woodchuck, foxes, weasels, rats, etc.
There are at least 24 breeds in the Terrier Group, ranging in
size from the Australian, Miniature Schnauzer and Cairn which
are the smallest, to the Airedale, the largest in this Group.
All
Terriers must be strong boned, well muscled and robust, regardless
of size and, contrary to popular belief, they should not have
straight shoulders! The chief characteristics of all the Terrier
breeds are their indomitable courage and unwavering devotion to
home and family.
