What's a Sealyham?
The Sealyham Personality
-adapted from the STCSC
The Sealyham is the couch potato of the Terrier World, displaying an even temper and a calm and relaxed attitude. He enjoys a certain small amount of exercise, say a short walk or romp in the garden. The Sealyham is a small dog and makes an ideal companion in today's world. He adapts well to both city and country living.
Sealys are curious about the world around them, and take a keen interest in inspecting and understanding their home and surroudings. The Sealyham is extremely loyal to his master or mistress, is throughly obedient and has a great need to please his owner.
This breed can be easily obedience and field trained. Once strangers are accepted by the owner, the dog is very outgoing and friendly. The breed is a great friend to other dogs and children.
While devoted to his family, he is never heartbroken even when being disciplined. He will rarely if ever cower for he is possessed with an indomitable spirit and immense pride. Once he has taken his place in the household he is virtually assured of equal status. Having had one Sealyham in a home is to be satisfied with no other breed, and that is the finest tribute that can be paid to any breed.
