The Delightful And Tiny Japanese Terrier, AED 000,000,000.00

Terriers are lively characters by nature and they are great fun to have around because they are so very entertaining.

These dogs are delightfully, cheery characters and like so many other terriers, they boast a tremendous amount of energy even if they are on the small side!


A Little Background History


These little dogs first appeared on the scene back in the 17th century when both British and Dutch traders took Fox Terriers over to Japan with them.

These little dogs are also called Nihon Terriers or sometimes they are referred to as Nippon Terriers with the breed not being formally recognised till the thirties by the Japanese Kennel Club. Although, adored in their native Japan, these little dogs are not that well known elsewhere in the world although things are now changing as more of them are appearing on the scene in other countries including here in the UK.

The Japanese Terrier is a very striking looking little dog with compact, muscular bodies and cuter than cute faces. Their coats are white in colour with darker flecks and spots that typically cover their entire body, but their heads are typically black which really does make the Japanese Terrier a very unique looking dot.
