A Dandie Dinmont Terrier is a small
breed of
dog in the
terrier
family. The breed has a very long body, short legs, and a distinctive "top-knot"
of hair on the head.
The Dandie Dinmont Terrier is named for Dandie Dinmont, a jovial farmer in
Sir

Guy
Mannering, who owned many terriers. The breed was first registered with
the
American Kennel Club (AKC) in 1888.
