Sealyham Terrier

The breed

The Sealyham Terrier is a small, sturdy Welsh terrier with a distinctive long, low body, broad head, and strong jaws. Its weather-resistant double coat is usually white, often marked with lemon, tan, or badger-colored patches around the head and ears. The breed has folded ears, dark expressive eyes, and a jaunty beard that gives it a dignified, slightly comical expression.

Sealyham Terriers are generally cheerful, confident, and affectionate companions. They tend to be less frenetic than some other terriers, but still retain the breed’s traditional courage, curiosity, and independent streak. Playful and alert, they often enjoy being involved in family life and may be reserved or watchful around unfamiliar people.
