Parson Russell Terier

The Parson Russell Terrier originates from England, developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries by breeding white terriers of Reverend Russell for fox hunting in organized trails. It features an athletic, compact build and a short, harsh coat—predominantly white with black or tan markings. Originally prized for its agility in fast-paced hunts, endurance, and keen prey drive, today’s Parson Russell Terrier is an energetic, intelligent, and devoted companion requiring consistent training, regular exercise, and mental stimulation.
