Gay and fearless, the Lakeland Terrier, named for the Lake District in Britain, stands out among the nation's many excellent long-legged terriers. Quite small by comparison to its quarry-seeking brethren. the Lakeland Terrier possesses every kilogramme of confidence, boldness and bravery of the others, and remains unspoiled by the popularity that has followed these other chart-toppers. Still tingling with its natural earthdog instincts, the Lakey is an excellent working dog, but offers numerous delights as a companion as well. Patricia Peters, the author and the breeder of the famed Kilfel Lakelands in the USA, describes the breed as 'curious and mischievous. and less aggressive than most other terriers'. These are free-thinking little devils, whose cunning and clever ways qualify them as 'con artists' both entertaining and frustrating for the devoted owner. For the right family, the Lakeland Terrier will be the only dog to fit the bill.
