In 1903, the breed made an appearance in the show ring and the first Sealyham Terrier club was formed in 1908. In 1910, the breed was officially recognized by the Kennel Club of England. The first champion of the breed in England was a dog named St. Brides Demon. He got the championship from him in 1911 and stamps were especially popular in the early 20th century. They stood out in the show ring, and show entries were often in the hundreds.
