In
the
Black
and
Tan
the
feather
on
the
ears
is
very
long
and
profuse,
exceeding
that
of
the
Blenheim
by
an
inch
or
more.
The
feather
on
the
tail
(which
is
cut
to
the
length
of
three
and
a
half
to
four
inches)
should
be
silky,
and
from
five
to
six
inches
in
length,
constituting
a
marked
"flag"
of
a
square
shape,
and
not
carried
above
the
level
of
the
back.
COLOUR--The
colour
differs
with
the
variety.
The
Black
and
Tan
is
a
rich
glossy
black
and
deep
mahogany
tan;
tan
spots
over
the
eyes,
and
the
usual
markings
on
the
muzzle,
chest,
and
legs
are
also
required.
The
Ruby
is
a
rich
chestnut
red,
and
is
whole-coloured.
The
presence
of
a
few
white
hairs
intermixed
with
the
black
on
the
chest
of
a
Black
and
Tan,
or
intermixed
with
the
red
on
the
chest
of
a
Ruby
Spaniel,
shall
carry
weight
against
a
dog,
but
shall
not
in
itself
absolutely
disqualify;
but
a
white
patch
on
the
chest
or
white
on
any
other
part
of
a
Black
and
Tan
or
Ruby
Spaniel
shall
be
a
disqualification.
The
Blenheim
must
on
no
account
be
whole-coloured,
but
should
have
a
ground
of
pure
pearly
white,
with
bright
rich
chestnut
or
ruby
red
markings
evenly
distributed
in
large
patches.
The
ears
and
cheeks
should
be
red,
with
a
blaze
of
white
extending
from
the
nose
up
the
forehead,
and
ending
between
the
ears
in
a
crescentic
curve.
In
the
centre
of
this
blaze
at
the
top
of
the
forehead
there
should
be
a
clear
"spot"
of
red,
of
the
size
of
a
sixpence.
Tan
ticks
on
the
fore-legs
and
on
the
white
muzzle
are
desirable.
The
Tricolour
should
in
part
have
the
tan
of
the
Black
and
Tan,
with
markings
like
the
Blenheim
in
black
instead
of
red
on
a
pearly-white
ground.
The
ears
and
under
the
tail
should
also
be
lined
with
tan.
The
Tricolour
has
no
"spot,"
that
beauty
being
peculiarly
the
property
of
the
Blenheim.
The
All
Red
King
Charles
is
known
by
the
name
of
"Ruby
Spaniel";
the
colour
of
the
nose
is
black.
The
points
of
the
"Ruby"
are
the
same
as
those
of
the
"Black
and
Tan,"
differing
only
in
colour.
