Notes
The Lakeland Terrier originates from the now extinct Old English Black and Tan Terrier, which was common during the 1700's before the concept of 'breeds' became popular. There were many local types, and in Cumbria, an extra tough terrier was needed, one that could kill or chase the large mountain foxes, an important job as the foxes could ruin the small farms by killing the chickens or lambs.
During the 1800's, the Lakeland Terrier was turned into a show breed, and the original working type was called Patterdale Terrier, and that's how it is even today. The breed was recognized by the British Kennel Club in 1931.
The only dog that has won BIS both in Crufts and Westminster was a Lakeland Terrier.
The Lakeland Terrier should give the impression of being an elegant and compact breed, brave, confident and friendly. The head has a flat and noble skull, with a broad but not too long snout and powerful jaws. The muzzle and skull should be the same length. The ears are small, V-shaped and tipper forward. The neck should be slightly arched and carry the head high. The chest is rather thin, with a short and strong back. Straight frontlegs and well angulated hind. The tail should be carried high but preferably not over the back.
