Bred to hunt badger, otter and fox, the Sealyham Terrier is a proud, determined dog with a compact, sturdy body distinguished by his bushy beard and mustache. This cheerful, charming breed has an unexpected loud bark for a small dog. Although less energetic than other terriers, the Sealyham Terrier requires daily brisk walks. His lightly shedding, wiry coat needs to be brushed twice a week and trimmed once a month.
