Border terrier

Japanese: ボーダー・テリア[種](英語表記)Border terrier
Border terrier
It is a domestic dog that originated in the UK. It is the oldest type of terrier breed, originating from the border region between England and Scotland. In the past, it served as a fierce-tempered sheepdog, protecting flocks from foxes and wolves that were much larger than it, and fighting thoroughly against external enemies. It has a short, thick tail and a somewhat rough and simple appearance, strongly conveying the essential character of the terrier breed. Its coat is not very long and bristly, but the undercoat is soft and dense. Its coat colors are red, gray and tan, blue and tan, and tan, and there are no white spots.

Japanese:
原産地がイギリスの家庭犬。イングランドとスコットランドの境界地方原産の最も古い型のテリア種。古くは自分よりはるかに大きいキツネやオオカミから羊群を守り,外敵と徹底的に闘争する激しい気性の牧羊犬として働いた。尾は太く短く,容貌はやや粗野で朴訥(ぼくとつ)の感を与え,テリア種の本質的な性格を強く伝えている。被毛はあまり長くなく剛毛であるが,下毛は柔らかく稠密(ちゆうみつ)である。毛色はレッド,グレーとタン(茶褐色),ブルーとタン,小麦色などで白斑はない。
