About this Item

Description: Dust jacket art by Martin Knowelden. Several black and white photo illustrations. Following is taken from the jacket blurb: ''To begin with, the author disperses the myths which surround this type's origins, then moves on to give comprehensive advice on the choice of a terrier, its rearing and entering as a working dog. Aspects of breeding are then covered, together with show entering and the treatment of common ailments. Side by side with the practical advice, he includes a wealth of readable and entertaining anecdotes.'' The author hopes his book will ''give at least an insight into the history, psychology and working abilities of a dog who should never become a show-bred piece of uselessness, but should remain the useful little hunter and all-round worker it is today.'' This was originally published in 1980. BNDING/CONDITION: red binding with gilt spine text; a Very Good book, with a Very Good dust jacket. 8vo (about 9.5 inches tall). 158 pages.
