GENERAL APPEARANCE
Shoulder height: 45-51cm (18”-20”) 
Colour: Red or orange. White allowable on tail tip, chest and head blaze.
Coat: Water repellent double coat. Smooth on face. Gait: Springy, jaunty gait. Single tracking at the trot.
The ‘Toller’ has a compact strong body with muscular quarters and webbed feet for swimming. Unlike many gundog breeds these dogs carry their tail erect when alerted. The wedge shaped head is surmounted by high set pendant ears. The colour of the nose matches the hair colour; skin colour matches the colour of the coat. Rear and fore angulation must balance and legs are straight with slightly sloping pasterns.
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
To ‘toll’ means to lure and it was for this purpose these dogs were evolved to assist hunters. They would be encouraged to jump and play on the shoreline in the hope their actions would soon lure inquisitive ducks into the firing range of the hunters. On the domestic scene, they have been found to have wonderful temperaments, and being highly intelligent, they are easy to train. They have a thick double coat and need periodic brushing to remove the dead hair.
HISTORY 
Tollers were evolved in Nova Scotia in the early 19th century to retrieve ducks from the surrounding icy waters. Like the other breeds that emerged in this part of the world, the Newfoundland, the originators of the Labrador and the Chesapeake Bay Retriever (who shares the same colouring), these dogs all excel in swimming and retrieving.

GENERAL APPEARANCE
Shoulder height: Upwards from 52cm (22”).
Colour: Grey, grizzle, blue or blue merle.
Coat: Profuse, harsh and shaggy outercoat. Waterproof.
Gait: Elastic and free. Ambling or pacing is acceptable.
These squarely built shaggy looking dogs are both muscular and intelligent. The dark rimmed eyes may be blue or brown and are set under well arched eyebrows. The skull is square and capacious and the muzzle strong. The neck is arched and runs into a back which is low at the withers and rises to the loin. The chest is well developed. The tail is normally docked completely to give the Bobtail effect. The hindquarters are well angulated and the feet small.
CHARACTERISTICS AND CARE
Also known as the Bobtail, Old English Sheepdogs are adaptable to training and make loving and docile pets. In maturity, they are not boisterous nor are they in the habit of roaming or fighting, thus making an ideal dog in the home. If not showing, the owner might prefer to keep the coat clipped. If showing, their coat does need a lot of care. Regular grooming is a must. Ensure that the brush has bristles or pins which reach right through to the undercoat.
HISTORY
Not being an old breed, the O.E.S. is believed to have evolved from the Bearded Collie in the early 19th century.However there may have been crosses with the Briard and the Hungarian sheepdog. Certainly the pily texture of the coat is similar to the Hungarian Puli and the Komondor. In order to claim exemption from English taxes in the early part of the 19th century, the longer haired ‘luxury’ dogs only qualified as working dogs if they had their tails docked, hence the farmers’ practice of docking this breeds’ tails and not other sheepdogs.

GENERAL APPEARANCE
Shoulder height: 60-67cm (24”-27”).
Colour: Any whole colour except black or brindle. Small tips of white
acceptable.
Coat: Outercoat - rough dense and waterproof. Undercoat - short and fine.
Gait: Long striding, loose and shambling.These free moving scent hounds with their majestic heads must be powerful and agile. The skull is somewhat domed and the muzzle is slightly shorter and deep. The eyes must show no haw - and the low set ears are long, folded and fringed at the tip. The long neck runs into well laid back shoulders and the ribcage is deep. The broad strong back has a high set tail which is carried gaily when moving. The hindlegs show a moderate bend at the stifle and finish with thick padded feet with webbed toes.
CHARACTERISTICS AND CARE
Being a pack dog, Otterhounds enjoy the company of other dogs. The slightly oily texture of their undercoat combined with their webbed feet means these hounds take to water like ducks. They have an abundance of energy and need a large area in which to exercise. Being amiable and even tempered, they are a joy to live with. Their coat is easily maintained and requires only an occasional brushing. 
HISTORY
While much of the history of this breed is lost in time, they have been traced back to at least the 12th century. Looking rather like a rough coated Bloodhound, the breed is believed to have evolved from the old St. Hubert Hound, the old Basset Griffon Vendéen and the Southern Hound. Their value was in hunting and killing otters who created havoc with the fish in the British rivers. These hounds needed to be agile and strong, not only because otters weighed up to 16kg or 35lb, but because they had to readily take to the water and be able to scramble up and down slippery river banks. They were also required to swim long distances under water. From 1870 to 1890, the Otterhounds in the Hawkstone pack had the remarkable record of disposing of 704 otters.

GENERAL APPEARANCE
Shoulder height: 20-28cm (8”-11”).
Colour: White with patches of colour - Tricolours.
Coat: Abundant and flowing with no undercoat. Short hair on skull, muzzle and front of legs.
Gait: Free, floating, feet straight and plenty of drive.
These dainty little toy dogs are always alert and lively. Two types of ear carriage are permitted - in the papillon, the ears are large, carried obliquely, mobile and heavily fringed. In, the phalene, they are set high but carried down. The skull is rounded and the shorter muzzle tends to be pointed. The head, which must be carried proudly, runs into a level topline and a high setplumed tail is carried over the back with the end falling to one side. Well angulated fore and hindquarters and fine legs, end with longish feet,
CHARACTERISTICS AND CARE
- Pronounced ‘pah-pee-yon’ in French, this word means butterfly and refers A to the shape of the ears. The word ‘phalene’ means moth in French. Not having an undercoat to protect them from the cold, these dogs prefer being inside. As they are readily trained to kitty litter boxes they are suitable for apartment life but do enjoy a‘ frolic in the garden or the park. Care should be taken not to let toddlers become too rough with them or they might become hand shy nippers. Like many small dogs, Papillons do yap for attention. Regular grooming is necessary for the coat to be kept in good bloom and free of knots. Nails should not be permitted to get too long.
HISTORY
Originally known as dwarf Spaniels in Spain; it was the Bolognese in Italy to whom credit must be given for developing the distinctive breed. Many of these dogs were despatched to European courts, one of the earliest being to Poland in 1545. They also made their way to the French Courts and King Louis XIV, Madame de Pompadour and Marie Antoinette are recorded as owning these enchanting dogs. While all the early specimens had drop ears, it was in France (possibly due to crosses with Chihuahuas) where one first encountered erect ears.

HISTORY
There are many records of the development of the Parson Russell Terrier however Jane’s Harvey’s www.janedogs.com gives the clearest concise picture.  Excerpts from Jane’s site tell us that “Prior to 1800 the generic name ‘Fox Terrier’ was given to any Terrier that was used to bolt foxes out of their burrows, particularly associated with the sport of Fox Hunting. Those which remained working Terriers whose ground colour was white were later developed into two separate breeds with differing leg length - the Jack Russell Terrier and the Parson Russell Terrier, both named after one man, the Parson Jack Russell. Meanwhile the name Fox Terrier became one of the first show dogs both in England and Australia. In England 1913 Fox Terriers were split into two separate pure-breeds separated by coat type - the Fox Terrier (Smooth) and the Fox Terrier (Wire).
The Reverend Jack (John) Russell was on the first board of the Kennel Club (UK) and one of the first Kennel Club judges despite his own dogs being specialized Fox Hunters rather than show dogs. At this time coats on both the show Fox Terriers and Jack Russell’s Terriers ranged from smooth through to the rough we see on Jack Russell to this day.
In England, by 1900 Fox Terriers had become pure show dogs, and bred quite separately from the Reverend Jack Russell’s working terriers.
 The ‘old type’ Fox Terriers continued to be bred from the Reverend John (Jack) Russell’s’ working lines selected for brains and a sound constitution. Although a Parson Jack Russell Terrier Club has existed in England right through the 1900’s, a breed standard written and even a class for ‘Working Fox Terriers’ provided at Crufts, the Parson (Jack) Russell Terrier was not separately recognized by the Kennel Club (UK) until 1990. Firstly it was called the Parson Russell Terrier and later the name was changed to the Parson Jack Russell Terrier. It differs from the Australian Jack Russell in that its ideal height is 14” for dogs and 13” for bitches”.
