Did you know that West Highland Terriers were originally bred for hunting rats, foxes, badgers, otters, and other small critters?

"The person most closely associated with developing the modern breed of West Highland White Terrier is Edward Donald Malcolm, 16th Laird of Poltalloch. Malcolm owned terriers used to work game, the story told is that a reddish-brown terrier was mistaken for a fox and shot. Following this Malcolm decided to develop a white terrier breed, which became known as the 'Poltalloch Terrier'."
