Dogs and All about Them

This
will
bear
out
the
statement
that
the
smaller
type
of
Spaniel
may
be
descended
from
the
Cockers.
The
ground
colour
of
this
dog
is
white,
with
chestnut
encircling
the
ears
to
the
muzzle,
the
sides
of
the
neck
are
chestnut,
as
are
also
the
ears.
There
is
a
white
blaze
on
the
forehead,
in
the
centre
of
which
should
be
a
clear
lozenge-shaped
chestnut
spot,
called
the
beauty
spot,
which
by
inbreeding
with
other
varieties
is
fast
being
lost.
Chestnut
markings
are
on
the
body
and
on
the
sides
of
the
hind-legs.
The
coat
should
incline
to
be
curly;
the
head
must
be
flat,
not
broad,
and
the
muzzle
should
be
straight.
The
chestnut
should
be
of
a
rich
colour.
The
four
varieties--the
King
Charles,
Tricolour
or
(as
he
has
been
called)
Charles
I.
Spaniel,
the
modern
Blenheim,
and
the
Ruby--have
all
the
same
points,
differing
from
one
another
in
colour
only,
and
the
following
description
of
the
points
as
determined
by
the
Toy
Spaniel
Club
serves
for
all:--
