CHAPTER V. 

 THE FOX TERRIER. 



THE popularity of the fox terrier is undoubted. He 

 is seen running at large in the streets of our cities 

 and towns ; in country places he abounds ; and 

 go where you will half a dozen fox terriers are to be 

 found for each specimen of any other variety of the 

 canine race. Clubs are established to promote his 

 efficiency and to add to his beauty. There is a 

 so-called parent club, and there are a dozen minor 

 affairs of the same kind, local and otherwise. The 

 fox terrier has a journal solely to look after its 

 interests, for in the Fox Terrier Chronicle the 

 claims of the little dog are supported. Then the 

 fox terrier has a special stud book ; and a volume 

 devoted entirely to this dog's history and description 

 has been published, and met with unusual success ; 

 the former edited by Mr. Hugh Dalziel and pub- 

 lished at 170, Strand, the latter in its second 

 edition " A History and Description, with Remi- 

 niscences, of the Fox Terrier," published by Horace 

 Cox, Bream's Buildings, E.C.
