Dandie Dinmont : ウィキペディア英語版
Dandie Dinmont Terrier

A Dandie Dinmont Terrier is a small Scottish 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. A character in Sir Walter Scott's novel ''Guy Mannering'' has lent the name to the breed, with "Dandie Dinmont" thought to be based on James Davidson, who is credited as being the "father" of the modern breed. Davidson's dogs descended from earlier terrier owning families, including the Allans of Holystone, Northumberland.
There are three breed clubs in the UK supporting the breed, although it is registered as a Vulnerable Native Breed by the Kennel Club due to its low number of puppy registrations on a yearly basis. The breed is friendly, but tough and is suitable for interaction with older children. There are no breed specific health concerns, but they can be affected by spinal issues due to their elongated body and the breed is affected by canine cancer at a higher than average rate.
== History ==

The breed originates from the dogs being used in the border country of Scotland and England. During the 1600s, they were used for hunting badgers and otters.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.the-kennel-club.org.uk/services/public/breed/display.aspx?id=3066 )〕 Whilst their ultimate origin remains unknown, dogs owned by the Allans of Holystone, Northumberland in the early 1700s are thought to have been involved in their early origins.〔 These dogs may have been a type of Border Terrier,〔Cook (1885): p. 70〕 although other theories exist including the idea that they are a cross between Scottish Terriers and Skye Terriers. The head of this family was Willie "Piper" Allan, who was born in nearby Bellingham.〔Cook (1885): p. 5〕 He was a fly-fisher and enjoyed his sports, and in particular kept dogs for the hunting of otters.〔 Lord Ravensworth once hired Allan to remove the otters from the pond in Eslington Park. Lord Ravensworth attempted to purchase one of Allan's favoured dogs after he successfully removed the otters, which Allan refused.〔Cook (1885): p. 6〕 Willie Piper died on 18 February 1779, and his dogs passed into the care of his son, James.〔Cook (1885): p. 7〕 James' son eventually inherited the dogs, and sold a dog named "Old Pepper" to Mr. Francis Sommer who came from Town Yetholm on the Scottish side of the border. Old Pepper was descended from one of Willie Allan's favorite dogs who had worked Lord Ravensworth's manor.〔
The breed remained relatively unknown outside of the borders until 1814 when Sir Walter Scott's novel ''Guy Mannering'' was published. Sir Walter had spent time in the area whilst the Sheriff of Selkirkshire and had learned of the prowess of these types of specialist terriers for working both fox and otter. When he wrote ''Guy Mannering'', he included a character by the name of "Dandie Dinmont" who owned a number of terriers named "Pepper" and "Mustard" after the colours of their coats. The Dinmont character was based on the real life farmer and terrier owner, Mr.aJames Davidson,〔Cook (1885): p. 8〕 who too used the generic terms of Pepper and Mustard for his dogs depending on their coats.〔Cook (1885): p. 9〕 Davidson's dogs came from a variety of sources including the dogs of the Allan, Anderson and Faas families.〔Cook (1885): p. 10〕〔Cook (1885): p. 14〕 Davidson documented his breeding, and has been accepted as the father of the modern breed.〔Cook (1885): p. 15〕
Some interbreeding with other breeds took place in the mid-1800s, which may have introduced Dachshund blood into the breed,〔〔Cook (1885): p. 69〕 although certain breeders maintained pure-bred lines.〔Cook (1885): p. 28〕 The Dachshund theory was first introduced by John Henry Walsh under the pseudonym of "Stonehenge" in the 1880s,〔Cook (1885): p. 72〕 and was denied by many breeders of that era.〔Cook (1885): p. 75〕 By the mid-1800s, the breed was known as the Dandie Dinmont Terrier, and became sought after for hunting after Scott's writings were published.〔 They remain the only dog breed to have been named after a fictional character.〔 Around this time the breed had some involvement in the development of the Bedlington Terrier.
The Kennel Club formed in 1873 and, at the Fleece Hotel at Selkirk, Scottish Borders on November 17, 1875, the Dandie Dinmont Terrier Club (DDTC) was formed,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ddtc.co.uk/about-the-club/club-history/a-potted-history.html )〕 becoming the third oldest breed club for dogs in the world. Lord Melgund was the society's first president, while Mr. E Bradshaw Smith was the first vice president. Noted breeders Hugh Dalziel and William Stachen were also involved in the formation of the club. The breed standard was created by Mr. William Wardlaw Reid, another founding member of the club, with it agreed a year later at another meeting of the club.〔 A club show was held for the first time in Carlisle in 1877. Shows after this were held in conjunction with other clubs on a yearly basis until 1928 when it moved to the Market Hall in Carlisle, where with the exception of during the Second World War, the shows continued to be held until 1982. Shows continued to be held in the general area until 2001 when they moved south to Cheshire and Lancashire.〔
The DDTC is not the only breed club in the UK. For a while several breed clubs were created in Scotland, but none lasted particularly long except for the Scottish Dandie Dinmont Terrier Society which merged into the DDTC in 1929.〔 Today, in addition to the DDTC, there are also the Southern Dandie Dinmont Terrier Society, and for Scotland, the Caledonian Dandie Dinmont Club.〔
The breed was first registered with the American Kennel Club (AKC) in 1888. The Dandie Dinmont Terrier was recognized by the United Kennel Club (UKC) in 1918. During the Second World War many kennels were dispersed and the dogs destroyed, due to both the lack of food caused by rationing and that of manpower. Following the war several kennels led the way to re–establishing the breed including the Bellmead Kennels, located first in Surrey before later moving to Old Windsor.〔 Dandies continued to be bred up at Bellmead up until the early 1990s, when it passed into the hands of Battersea Dogs and Cats Home.〔
In 2006, the Kennel Club recognised the Dandie Dinmont Terrier as one of the rarest dog breeds native to the British Isles, putting it on a new list of Vulnerable Native Breeds. The breeds chosen for this list were those who originated in the UK and Ireland, but had less than 300 puppy registrations per year. One particularly low period was between July and September 2003, when only 21 puppies were registered, of which 18 were male. Overall that year, only 90 puppies were registered in the UK, compared to 9,823 for the West Highland White Terrier. Additionally numbers had dropped to low levels in America as well, with the AKC registering only 75 puppies in the same time period.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/item/808 )〕 Following work since 2006, the Dandie Dinmont registration numbers have improved slightly, with 151 puppies registered with the Kennel Club in 2010, the highest number for any year in the last ten years. Of other breeds of native terrier, only the Skye, Sealyham, Manchester and Glen of Imaal Terriers have lower registration figures.
