andy26 618 Posted September 27, 2014 Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 Did anybody get anywhere with finding a working Sealyham or Sealyham x. This thread seemed like it was actually going to go somewhere instead of people just talking. Then it just ended. I've been looking for one myself like. Hard to get honest answers though In all honesty There is not any working sillyham terriers anymore, and haven't been for many many years. there is still a few going up here in Durham they have been out crossed for the cork line but still have the blood running through and they are good earth dogs Quote Link to post

Tracy Priestnall 83 Posted September 28, 2014 Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 if anyone wants to see the real deal sealyham, you tube british pathe sealyham terriers, the captin himself, lucas with a huge pack out, 40-50 dogs. kev-medlock crew Quote Link to post
fireman 10,870 Posted September 28, 2014 Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 "The Captain" himself in sealyhams would be Captain Edwards,not Lucas who just worked them,Edwards was the man who developed them into a breed. 1 Quote Link to post

mushroom 12,883 Posted September 28, 2014 Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 A bag of sand for a feckin show pony??? LMFAO who in their right mind would pay that for a digging dog??? 1 Quote Link to post
Bryan 1,362 Posted September 28, 2014 Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 There's been no "Pure" sealyhams digging for probably 100 years. Who cares about purity? There's been working sealyham types about. An outcross doesn't diminish a working type once it's working. Surely the important things are working ability and style within a working type animal? This is from Lucas's book 85 years ago. Sealyham type. non pedigree, types and cross breeds for the most part here again. Workers for working surely? Quote Link to post
Bryan 1,362 Posted September 28, 2014 Report Share Posted September 28, 2014 There's still working type sealyhams about. Most are given to working homes and can't be bought for any money. 3 Quote Link to post
