The moniker "Rothbury's Lamb" for the Bedlington Terrier makes sense when you see what the dog looks like. Although the Bedlington was first developed as a rodent hunter, it later turned into a racing dog and a popular display dog. Though he has a submissive demeanor, Bedlington is renowned for its strong swimming abilities.

Despite being amiable with people, especially kids, breeders also said that it was "fit to kill another dog of its weight class." The dog breed, closely linked to the Whippet, has a long lifespan of 13.5 years and originated specifically in Northumberland.
These terriers are gregarious and energetic. They still possess a strong sense of smell and good hunting instincts. The greatest height of a Bedlington Terrier is eighteen inches, and you may see them captivating crowds at different NBC dog events. Apart from being an excellent hunter and show dog, the Bedlington also makes a wonderful friend.
