History
This breed was developed in the nineteenth century in the village of Sealyham in Wales. Beginning in 1850, Captain J. Edwards began crossing various terriers, including the Fox Terrier, the West Highland White Terrier, the Dandie Dinmont Terrier, and perhaps the Welsh Corgi. The result was the Sealyham Terrier. This breed was used in the past to hunt otter and polecat. The Sealyham Terrier Club was founded in 1908, and the breed was recognized by The Kennel Club in 1911.
