The Buzzard Bodeguero Andaluz is a Spanish breed of small indigenous Western Andalusia, especially in the province of Cadiz. Its name comes from the main function of this breed in the cellars of Jerez: hunting for mice that are hidden between the barrels.

The origin of this race is found in the terriers of the English wine merchant who settled in Jerez de la Frontera, Sanlucar de Barrameda and El Puerto de Santa Maria, in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century.

These dogs were crossed with those used in the holds and blocks to eliminate rats and mice that were there. The result was a gifted collection of dogs to hunt rodents and vermin.

In 1993 the founder of the race, Bartolomé Benítez Pérez-Luna, introduced the first articles of association of breeders to the interior ministry. It is from this point the source of the Club Nacional del Perro Andaluz Buzzard.
