The detail
The longer-legged, square-built version of the Rev. John Russell's fox-working terrier, bred to keep pace with hunting horses and bolt foxes. The Parson is bold, clever and athletic, with energy that needs daily running, work and training.
What to weigh
Parsons dig, bark and chase, and they can jump or climb out of low fences. Under-exercised, they become destructive and noisy.
