DANDIE DINMONT TERRIER
History - The Dandie Dinmont was developed in England in the 17th century to hunt badgers, foxes, rats, and weasels. In the 19th century it was named Dandie Dinmont after a country gentlemen in Sir Walter Scott�s 1815 novel Guy Mannering. Dinmont, who lived on the affectionate terriers on his farm, kept six of these playful, affectionate terriers on his farm. This breed has been popular with gypsies as well as aristrocracy at various times in history.
Temperament - The properly socialized and trained Dandie Dinmont is a delightful dog. It can be protective of its property, wary of strangers, dominant, and independent, but also gentle if treated kindly and with respect. It is very important to start obedience training and to socialize this dog with adults, children, and other animals at an early age.
Upkeep - Dandie Dinmonts need to be brushed and combed two to three times a week and trimmed every three months. Vigorous exercise will reduce this dog�s tendency to dig holes and bark excessively.
Size - height 8-11 inches, weight 18-24 pounds.
