The
prominent
Irish
Terriers
of
the
'seventies
varied
considerably
in
type.
Stinger,
who
won
the
first
prize
at
Lisburn
in
1875,
was
long-backed
and
short-legged,
with
a
"dark
blue
grizzle
coloured
back,
tan
legs,
and
white
turned-out
feet."
The
dam
of
Mr.
Burke's
Killeney
Boy
was
a
rough
black
and
tan,
a
combination
of
colours
which
was
believed
to
accompany
the
best
class
of
coats.
Brindles
were
not
uncommon.
Some
were
tall
on
the
leg,
some
short;
some
were
lanky
and
others
cobby;
many
were
very
small.
There
were
classes
given
at
a
Dublin
show
in
1874
for
Irish
Terriers
under
9
lb.
weight.
