Dandie Dinmont Terrier

Dandie Dinmont Terrier Gallery

The Dandie Dinmont Terrier originates in the border area of Scotland and England. They are believed to be the result of cross breeding the English Terrier, Skye Terrier, Otterhound and Bedlington Terrier. They were used for hunting small game. They were first registered by the American Kennel Association in 1886.

Dandie Dinmont Terrier Puppies

The Dandie Dinmont Terrier has a coat composed of one third soft hair and two thirds harder hair. She is groomed by brushing regularly and needs to be professionally groomed to pluck out dead hair several times a year.

The current Dandie Dinmont terriers are named after a personality in a very popular Sir Walter Scott book that was written in the early 1900's. At that time, they were mostly bred by British Gypsies and used for the hunting of rodents. When dog breeding became trendy in the 19th century, many people began keeping Dandies. These dogs remained popular into the 20th century.

The Dandie Dinmont Terrier makes wonderful companion dogs for most families, even those in small apartments and homes. They are affectionate and kind, and they will bond strongly with family members. These dogs are very clever and also stubborn at times. They love to play and are always keen on pleasing their owners. Although they are eager to satisfy, if there is something that calls for their attention, it will be almost impossible to call them off. They usually do not do well in obedience and should be trained correctly from puppyhood onwards. If socialised properly, these dogs will not be aggressive toward other dogs.

The Dandie Dinmont Terrier will need a firm but also hand in training. They can be fairly stubborn at times, but training is fairly simple for this clever breed. The Dandie Dinmont Terrier does not do very well with obedience training and have a very short attention span. Dandie Dinmonts are not very interested in training, so it is therefore important to be firm and consistent. Training should be fun for this breed as they love to play and run around.

Cardigan Welsh Corgi Galleries

Cardigan Welsh Corgi dogs, more popularly know as Corgis were used as cattle dogs in England as early as the 1920's. Though often confused with the tailless Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Cardigan Welsh Corgi have their own set of characteristics that make them unique and cherished companions.

Cardigan Welsh Corgi Images

Perhaps the most unique characteristic of Cardigan Welsh Corgi dogs is its physical appearance. Some would describe the Corgi as a fox-like dog, trapped in a miniature dog's body. The Cardigan Welsh Corgi has ears similar looking to that of a fox's. It can be anywhere between 10-13 inches tall, weighing around 25-45 pounds. These dogs have somewhat stocky but elongated bodies with very short legs. It's exterior coat ranges from short to medium length and comes in shades of brown or black with white markings.

There are several theories about the origin of the Cardigan Welsh Corgi, and many believe that both Corgi breeds are related to the Swedish Vallhunds. These dogs have been brought to Wales by the Vikings during the 800s.

Cardigan Welsh Corgi Picture

Another premise is that the Cardigan Welsh Corgi is the older of the two Corgi breeds, and that the Celts brought them to Wales in about 1200 BC. The name "Corgi" is derived from the word "dog" in Celtic. The Corgi has many natural talents that include herding, hunting, and guarding. Seeing that these dogs are fairly low, they manage to move out of the way whenever a cow kicked. These days the Cardigan Welsh Corgi is primarily a companion dog.

Weight:

It should weigh from 12-15 lbs.

Build:

This terrier's head is broad in skull and short in fore-face, resembling the otter (one of his most hated foes).

The skin is very distinctive in that it is loose-fitting and extremely thick. The hide of a Border can be grasped and pulled away from his body without making the dog uncomfortable. This tough, but loose-fitting hide helps him in his work and protects him from bites and adversaries.

Different colors of the Border Terrier include blue and tan, grizzle and tan, or just red.

Heritage:

Border Terrier Dog Breeds Image

The Border Terrier hails from the North of England, but you can find them in Cumberland, Northumberland and West Moreland as well. Most breeds commmon to the North of England are so closely related that it is difficult to say which descended from which...

The Border Terrier may well be the product of the Dandie Dinmont Terrier and the Bedlington Terrier, yet it might have been the ancestor of one of these breeds.

It appears that the breed was known at the end of the 17th Century as a sporting dog. It has been known by it's present name for over 1 Century.

What a great little companion - the Border Terrier!

The Lhasa Apso long-haired Tibetan dog

The Lhasa Apso originated in Tibet, perhaps as long ago as 800 B.C., which makes it one of the oldest recognized breeds in the world. Recent research has shown the Lhasa as one of the breeds most closely related to the ancestral wolf.

Referred to in Tibet as Apso Seng Kyi, best translated as "Bearded Lion Dog," the Lhasa's primary function was that of a household sentinel, guarding the homes of Tibetan nobility and Buddhist monasteries, particularly in or near the sacred city of Lhasa.
