This superb book of the Fox Terrier was first published in London
1889 and even today remains a classic book of the breed. First
editions are very rare, expensive, and much sought after. VINTAGE
DOG BOOKS have now republished it, using the original text and the
splendid illustrations by the famous dog artist Arthur Wardle.
Rawdon Lee was a celebrated author of several important dog books
and was Kennel Editor of "The Field." The books one hundred and
fifty seven pages contain seven detailed chapters on: - Old Writers
on Terriers. - History and Origins. - Terrier Values. - Early
Shows. - Famous Dogs. - Ear Dropping and Other Malpractices. -
Kennels. - Scale of Points. - Working and Training. - Wire-haired
Fox Terriers. - Yorkshire and Devonshire Strains. - Rev. John
Russell's Terriers. - Breeding and Rearing. - Preparing for Shows.
- List of Clubs. Etc. This is a fascinating read for any Terrier
enthusiast or historian of the breed, but also contains much
information that is still useful and practical today. Many of the
earliest dog breed books, particularly those dating back to the
1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly
expensive. VINTAGE DOG BOOKS are republishing these classic works
in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original
text and artwork.
