Sealyhamterrier

Sealyham, is the name of a mansion in Wales formerly owned by Captain John Edwardes. Wanting a hunting terrier to work the grounds of his estate Captain Edwardes developed the Sealyhamterrier. He wanted a small terrier that could go under ground and it had to be white so they wouldn't be mistaken for a badger. The Captain's breeding efforts from 1850 until his death in 1891, has given the world one of the most desirable members of the terrier tribe.

The Sealyhamterrier is a friendly charming loveable delightful clown with a terrific sense of humour. He is a dog that likes to play even at an old age. If you see the doormat "walking" across the floor, you can be certain it's a Sealyham underneath it. He is a devoted companion and a wonderful family member.
