Description
History
The Sealyham Terrier is a dog breed, one of many Terrier breeds. The Sealyham Terrier originates from Wales and was bred by crossing Basset Hounds, Bull Terriers, the Fox Terrier, the West Highland White Terrier, and the Dandie Dinmont Terrier. The Sealyham Terrier derives its name from Sealy Ham, Haverfordwest, Wales, the estate of Captain John Edwards, who developed a strain of dogs noted for their prowess in quarrying small game.
The first Sealyham Terrier's club was created in 1908 and the breed was officially recognised in 1910. Sealyham Terriers are today found mainly in England and South Africa.
Temperment
The Sealyham Terrier is an intelligent and charming dog, although it can be stubborn and very terrier-like at times.
