A domestic dog originating from England. Its name comes from Bedlington, a town in the northeast corner of England where it originated. It was created in the early 19th century by incorporating the blood of the Dandie Dinmont and Whippet into an old-style terrier breed. Its distinctive features include long ears not seen in other terrier breeds, hair on the top of the head, a high "Roman" nose, and an arched lower back similar to that of a Whippet. In the past, it was used in dog fights as a bet by workers, and it had a fiery temperament. Source: Heibonsha World Encyclopedia, 2nd Edition Information |
