Introduction

The Bedlington Terrier is a unique blend of grace and tenacity, known for its distinctive woolly coat resembling a lamb. This agile breed possesses a keen intelligence and an affectionate demeanor, making it an adaptable companion. Standing at about 15-17 inches at the shoulder, these medium-sized dogs are deceptively powerful, requiring regular exercise to match their high energy levels. Despite their playful nature, Bedlington Terriers are surprisingly gentle and excel in homes where they're provided with ample love and attention.
