Hunt terrier

Type of terrier dog

Hunt Terrier refers to types of terrier dogs that were attached to British "hunts", horse-oriented social clubs devoted to chasing the red fox on horseback, following packs of hounds. The hunt terrier was kept for a variety of reasons, such as rat control around stables and kennels, and to run with the hounds to flush the fox from small hiding places. It might also be expected to flush foxes from underground dens, or to act as a lurcher. They tended to be white in colour so as to be more easily seen by the hunter, but they could be any colour.
