Dogs and All about Them
·
Robert Leighton

From
this
time
on
the
breed
prospered
pretty
well;
several
very
good
terriers
were
bred,
the
hound
gradually
almost
disappeared,
as
also
did
to
a
great
extent
the
bad-coloured
ones.
The
best
example
amongst
the
early
shown
dogs
was
undoubtedly
Newbold
Test,
who
had
a
long
and
very
successful
career.
This
dog
excelled
in
terrier
character,
and
he
was
sound
all
over;
his
advent
was
opportune--he
was
just
the
dog
that
was
wanted,
and
there
is
no
doubt
he
did
the
breed
a
great
amount
of
good.
A
dog
called
Colne
Crack,
who
was
a
beautiful
little
terrier
was
another
of
the
early
shown
ones
by
whom
the
breed
has
lost
nothing,
and
two
other
terriers
whose
names
are
much
revered
by
lovers
of
the
breed
are
Cholmondeley
Briar
and
Briar
Test.
Some
years
ago,
when
the
breed
was
in
the
stage
referred
to
above,
a
club
was
formed
to
look
after
its
interests,
and
there
is
no
doubt
that
though
perhaps
phenomenal
success
did
not
attend
its
efforts,
it
did
its
best,
and
forms
a
valuable
link
in
the
chain
of
popularity
of
the
Airedale.
It
was
at
best
apparently
a
sleepy
sort
of
concern,
and
never
seems
to
have
attracted
new
fanciers.
Some
dozen
or
so
years
ago,
however,
a
club,
destined
not
only
to
make
a
great
name
for
itself,
but
also
to
do
a
thousandfold
more
good
to
the
breed
it
espouses
than
ever
the
old
club
did,
was
formed
under
the
name
of
the
South
of
England
Airedale
Terrier
Club,
and
a
marvellously
successful
and
popular
life
it
has
so
far
lived.
The
younger
club
was
in
no
way
an
antagonist
of
the
older
one,
and
it
has
ever
been
careful
that
it
should
not
be
looked
upon
in
any
way
as
such.
The
old
club
has,
however,
been
quite
overshadowed
by
the
younger,
which,
whether
it
wishes
it
or
not,
is
now
looked
upon
as
the
leading
society
in
connection
with
the
breed.
