Welsh Hillman
The Welsh Hillman was an ancient Welsh breed or type of herding dog, used for herding and droving. The breed is thought to have become extinct around 1990.
The Hillman was thought to have been descended from ancient Welsh herding dogs.〔Carpenter, B. ''The Shepherd's Dogge'', Fall 1994: see (Welsh Sheep Dog ), The Border Collie Museum〕 It was possibly the oldest Welsh sheepdog,〔Wildhagen, P. (History of the Australian Shepherd ), ASCA Yearbook, 1977〕 and may have been the descendant of the old ''gellgi'' or "Welsh wolfhounds" used around a thousand years ago.〔Hubbard, C L B. ''Dogs In Britain'', Macmillan, 1948〕 Some sources, without any obvious evidence, suggest it was crossbred with similar dogs seen in North Africa.〔Seis, C. ''Working Dogs: Training for Sheep and Cattle'', Elsevier, 1996, p.11〕
It was a large but rangy dog, up to around 25 inches in height, and described as "fast and fearless", with an appearance not unlike a lighter-built German Shepherd.〔Wildhagen, P. (History of the Australian Shepherd ), ASCA Yearbook, 1977〕 The ears were pricked. The coat was usually of a light fawn, sandy or red-gold〔McMullen, J. ''A Small Country Living Goes On'', W W Norton, 1991, p.137〕〔Wildhagen, P. (History of the Australian Shepherd ), ASCA Yearbook, 1977〕 colour with a black saddle, white chest, white on the legs and tip of the tail and a blaze on the face.〔Carpenter, B. ''The Shepherd's Dogge'', Fall 1994: see (Welsh Sheep Dog ), The Border Collie Museum〕 Blue merle dogs were also occasionally seen.
The breed was uncommon in modern times. C L B Hubbard, writing in 1948, described it as "almost extinct" and "scarcely ever seen working today".〔Hubbard, C L B. ''Dogs In Britain'', Macmillan, 1948〕 The last known Welsh Hillman, "Jess", was purchased in 1974 from a hill farm near Hay-on-Wye by the author and broadcaster Jeanine McMullen, and was unfortunately spayed before her owner realised her rarity.〔Carpenter, B. ''The Shepherd's Dogge'', Fall 1994: see (Welsh Sheep Dog ), The Border Collie Museum〕〔McMullen, J. ''A Small Country Living Goes On'', W W Norton, 1991, p.137〕
