 DANDIE DINMONT TERRIER DESCRIPTION
What sets the Dandie Dinmont Terrier from other Terrier breeds is that it has topknot of silky fur and stands very close to the ground. The fluffed topknot gives the head an even larger appearance than it is naturally. Its facial features are also large. The eyes are large but not to the point of bulging. The torso features well-developed muscles. The legs are very short, but strong. The hindlegs are straight while the hindlegs are slightly angeled. The coat is long and smooth all over its body, but most profuse from the top of the chest to the end of the ribs. The face has a great deal of fur, but it does not obstruct the facial features. The coat is smooth on the back. The tail is set somewhat higher than the back when the dog is at attention.  Read More
