The Official Book of the Sealyham Terrier, written by renowned author Muriel Lee, is the definitive book on the Sealyham and will be of consuming and long-term interest for the potential Sealyham owner, breeder, judge, and antiquarian. This book delineates the history of the breed beginning in the 1850s in Wales, its first appearance in the show ring in England in 1910, and its travel across the pond to be shown for the first time in the United States in 1912. A history of those stalwart individuals whose dedication and efforts went into the making up of what the Sealyham Terrier is today is included. The Sealyham is sporting, game, courageous, and has a charming nature. He is truly "a big dog in a small space." He is most affectionate, and while he has a big bark, he doesn't use it indiscriminately. He is very intelligent and has a fine sense of humor. This book will tell you all you need to know about the history and character of the breed and it will guide you in all aspects of living with a Sealyham Terrier, from selecting, raising, and breeding to grooming and showing your friend.
