hedz31 1,308 Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 What are folks views on this then the patterdale terrier is it a breed or is it a type, i have never really called them patterdales, i have always called them black fell terriers even the difference that seems to have emerged between the smooth coated type and the rough coated type now the smooth coated type seems to have taken on the name as patterdale and the rough coated type has kept the black fell name by most ,i dont know if its just old habit why i just call them all fells but recently i have been slipping up and calling the smooth type patterdales, so whats other peoples views on this is the patterdale a breed in its own right or just a smooth coated fell type ??? not after a bitching session i have my own views and opinions and will stick to them just wondered what every one else thought on the matter regards hedz Quote Link to post

bedrock 16 Posted July 27, 2010 Report Share Posted July 27, 2010 I think all working terriers should be considered a type not breeds the second they are considered a breed a physical standard is written out witch has been a down fall of many a type of dog. look at the differences between the deferent lines of blacks. They are not the same just call them paterdail/Fell TYPES Quote Link to post
