Are Bedlington Terriers good family dogs?
Yes, Bedlington Terriers make wonderful family companions. They are loyal, affectionate, and good with children. They are playful and entertaining, relatively quiet for a terrier, and their non-shedding coat makes them suitable for allergy sufferers. They do have a strong prey drive and need regular grooming.
Are Bedlington Terriers hypoallergenic?
Bedlington Terriers are often considered hypoallergenic because they have a unique linty coat that does not shed in the traditional way. However, no dog is truly hypoallergenic. Their coat requires regular professional grooming every 6–8 weeks to maintain the breed's distinctive shape.
What is the Bedlington Terrier's temperament?
Bedlington Terriers combine gentle sweetness with terrier spirit. They are affectionate, loyal, playful, and entertaining at home, but can be surprisingly fierce when aroused. They were originally bred for hunting vermin in the mining areas of Northumberland, and retain their courage and determination beneath their soft exterior.
