Talk:English Toy Terrier (Black & Tan)

Facing Extintion/Vulnerable Native Breed
This breed is classed in Britain as a VNB - a breed which originated in the UK but now has registration numbers with the Kennel Club of less then 300 puppies per year.

I'm a Canadian teenager on a gap year before Uni and I'm really interested in this. Would anyone like a VNB paragraph/link on this page? I can write it, but am ignorant about formatting etc. Plus, I'm trying to put together a whole collection on all 29 breeds on this list, including history and so on, using Wikipedia as one of my many sources. If you can help, or are interested at all, please contact me either on my talk page or at green_ied_dragon@hotmail.com

Merge proposal
Toy Manchester Terrier is a small stub that explicitly states the breed is also known as the English Toy Terrier (Black & Tan).

Recommend merging into this articleVulture19 (talk) 17:51, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Don't merge. There is a historical connection but they are not the same. The toy Manchester terrier is a Manchester terrier; The Manchester terrier is a separate breed from the English Toy Terrier (Black and Tan), which is threatened with extinction. In an effort to save the breed, some examples of the closely related toy Manchester terrier from the US have been registered in the UK as English Toy Terrier (Black & Tan). But it is a different breed. --Hafwyn (talk) 22:44, 9 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Nice work on the other page - I'm removing my merge tags. The main reason they were there was the article, prior to your revisions, stated it was also known as.
