The Skye Terrier is an ancient Scottish breed, originating on the Isle of Skye in the Hebrides over 400 years ago. Bred to hunt foxes and badgers, they were valued for their fearless nature, long low bodies, and weather-resistant double coat that helped them navigate the rocky terrain and harsh climate. Their popularity soared in the 19th century after Queen Victoria became an admirer and advocate, often seen with her own Skye Terriers at Balmoral. Despite their noble status and historical importance, the breed is now considered vulnerable and rare, with efforts underway to preserve this loyal, dignified terrier with a rich heritage.
