Summary
About Skye Terrier
Skye Terriers are long, low terriers from Scotland with a straight, floor-length double coat. Bred to hunt fox and badger, they are calm, loyal and often bond closely with one person. Reserved with strangers, they need moderate exercise, regular grooming, and thoughtful, positive training.
About Sealyham Terrier
Compact Welsh terrier bred for hunting but affectionate and calm at home. Sturdy, low body with a distinctive white double coat, beard and eyebrows needing regular grooming. Intelligent, independent and moderate in exercise needs, it suits engaged families; the breed is now relatively rare.
