Dogs and All about Them

The
blues,
or
smoke-coloured
Pomeranians,
have
likewise
their
admirers,
and
among
those
who
have
taken
up
these
as
a
speciality
may
be
mentioned
Miss
Ives,
Mrs.
Parker,
Mrs.
Loy,
and
Miss
Ruby
Cooke.
Another
colour
which
has
attained
of
late
years
increasing
popularity
in
England
is
orange.
These
should
be
self-coloured
throughout,
and
light
shadings,
though
not
disqualifying,
should
be
discouraged.
The
principal
breeder
of
the
orange
Pomeranian
to-day
is
Mr.
W.
Brown,
of
Raleigh,
Essex,
who
has
probably
more
specimens
in
his
kennels
than
any
other
breeder
of
this
colour.
Tiny
Boy,
The
Boy,
and
Orange
Boy
are
his
best,
and
all
three
are
approved
sires.
Mrs.
Hall-Walker
is
an
admirer
of
this
colour,
and
her
Gateacre
Philander,
Lupino,
and
Orange
Girl
are
great
prize-winners.
Miss
Hamilton
of
Rozelle
has
for
many
years
bred
"oranges,"
and
has
given
to
the
Pomeranian
Club,
of
which
she
is
President,
two
challenge
cups
for
Pomeranians
of
this
colour.
Mrs.
Birch
also
is
a
lover
of
this
hue,
and
possesses
such
good
dogs
as
Rufus
Rusticus
and
Cheriwinkle.
There
is
still
another
variety
which
bears
the
name
of
parti-coloured.
As
the
name
implies,
these
dogs
must
be
of
more
than
one
colour,
and
the
colours
should
be
evenly
distributed
on
the
body
in
patches;
for
example,
a
black
dog
with
a
white
foot
or
leg
or
chest
would
not
be
a
parti-colour.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
there
have
been
bred
in
England
very
few
parti-coloured
Pomeranians;
they
seem
to
be
freaks
which
are
rarely
produced.
It
does
not
follow
that
by
mating
a
black
dog
to
a
white
bitch,
or
vice
versa,
a
parti-coloured
will
be
necessarily
obtained;
on
the
contrary,
it
is
more
likely
that
the
litter
will
consist
of
some
whole-coloured
blacks,
and
some
whole-coloured
whites.
Miss
Hamilton's
Mafeking
of
Rozelle,
and
Mrs.
Vale
Nicolas's
Shelton
Novelty,
are
the
two
most
prominent
specimens
at
the
present
time,
although
Mrs.
Harcourt-Clare's
Magpie
and
Mr.
Temple's
Leyswood
Tom
Tit
were
perhaps
better
known
some
time
ago.
