Synopsis

"This latest edition of Mr. Dunn's book is full of matter which will be of great interest and value to breeders both present and future, and should meet with a widespread demand" H.N.Beilby

Back cover reads - “The Canine Library: This book was written by Joseph Dunn the person primarily responsible for getting the breed recognised by the Kennel Club. It gives tremendous hindsight into the history of this popular breed. Besides given advice and information it also presents many illustrations of the old champions, showing how they have varied in size and shape. Today, following the pioneering work of the personalities listed as the founders of the Staffordshire Club, the breed has evolved into a dog that is easily recognized. Moreover, many of the early faults in ears, tail, head and stature have been eradicated to the benefit of the breed. Yet there are no exaggerated features which have been the downfall of many of the other breeds.”
