Breed History

Caring

Not only are Australian Terriers cute, but they also are a picture of health….

There are very few known health problems with this breed, and they require minimal care. Their pointy ears are prone to wax build up, so make sure you clean them regularly. Their coat is short and shedding is minimal, though they are not quite considered hypoallergenic.

The Australian Terrier does not require quite as much exercise as other Australian breeds, but they still enjoy being active.

These dogs love to strut their stuff around people and might not do well in an environment where they are by themselves for long periods of time. They are part of a group known as Velcro dogs, meaning they love to be by your side at all times.

Australian Terriers love to dig around outside, so be sure to keep them away from your garden or other areas that youd rather they not get into. They do require at least some time outdoors, so if you live in an apartment, make sure they go out for walks to a park or another outdoor area where they can let their natural instincts loose for just a little bit.

Breed History

Aussies were bred from English terriers brought to Australia in the early 1800s. They were originally called the Rough Coated Terrier and were bred to eliminate mice and other pests. They took on the name Australian Terrier in the late 1800s.

Australian Terriers were also bred to thrive in multiple conditions, so they will do well pretty much anywhere they live. They were utilized by settlers as watchdogs and companions in rural areas. Once the land was settled, they became a favorite among Australian and British elite, who valued their loyalty and intelligence.

Australian service members brought them to the US in the 1930s and 1940s, and the American Kennel Club recognized them in 1960. Aussies quickly proved to be just as loved in the US as they were throughout the rest of the world. Today, they are one of the most difficult dogs to find; be sure to seek out a reputable breeder if you want to add one of these spunky dogs to your family.
