Introduction

The Parson Russell Terrier is a bundle of energy encased in a smooth or rough-coated package. Known for their tenacity and intelligence, these small to medium-sized terriers stand out with their distinct rectangular body and confident attitude. They typically exhibit white with tan or black markings. Bred initially for fox hunting, their spirited nature requires ample exercise, making them perfect for active families or individuals. They thrive with consistent training and excel in various canine sports, craving both mental and physical stimulation.
