Summary
About Dandie Dinmont Terrier
Small, long-backed terrier with a distinctive silky topknot, the Dandie Dinmont is calm and affectionate at home but brave and determined outdoors. Originally bred to hunt otters and badgers, it has a low-shedding, high-maintenance coat and is rare, making responsible breeding vital.
About Cesky Terrier
Compact Czech hunting and family terrier with a sturdy, low body and long, silky clipped coat. Calm yet playful, typically good with children and dogs when well socialised. Intelligent and sensitive, needs regular exercise, training, and grooming. Still relatively rare outside its homeland.
