The Welsh terrier stands about 38 cm (115 in) at the shoulder and weighs about 9 kg (20 lb). It is hardy and game but quit and less excitable than the fox terrier.

Cardigan Welsh Corgi

The cardigan is one of the oldest breeds in the British Isles. A working dog of the Welsh farmer, it was used to drive cattle into unfenced common (crown owned) land. The breed, however, began to be seen at dog shows in England only in the 1920s. In 1934 the English Kennel Club separated the Cardigan and Pembroke Welsh Corgi into two distinct breeds. The Cardigan is short legged and long bodied, with erect ears and a fox like head; the word corgi, in Welsh, means dwarf dog. It stands about 30 cm (12 in) at the shoulders, weighs about 11 kg (25 lb), and measures about 1 m (3 ft) from rose to tip of tail. The dense, medium length coat may range from reddish to blue gray to black, usually with white markings pure white is a disqualification for show dogs.
