GENERAL APPEARANCE
Shoulder height: 46-51 cm
Colour: Orange/white, liver/white, black/white, roan/white or tricolour.
Coat: Dense, rather fine and slightly wavy.
Gait: Vigorous, energetic and true.
This breed is one of the tallest in the spaniel family. The slightly rounded skull is one third longer than the muzzle, and the ears are much higher set than in most spaniels. The nose and eye colour blend with the body colour.
The body is strong, relatively short and the well angulated hindquarters lower than the withers. The tail is usually short (about 10cm) and carried level or down.The feet are tight. 
CHARACTERISTICS AND CARE 
Due to this breed’s ‘Setter’ characteristics and their ability to point as well as flush out birds, the Brittany Spaniel is often known in France as the French Setter. Like most spaniels, the Brittany is no exception when it comes to developing an excellent working partnership with its owner. They are extremely sociable with both people and dogs and adapt equally well to life as a house pet or a kennel dog. However, they do need to get regular exercise. Only a little brushing is needed to maintain a lovely coat.
HISTORY
It was not until the 1800s after the blending of spaniel and setter characteristics, that the Brittany Spaniel’s distinct breed type was evolved. The label ‘spaniel’ denoting an ancestry from Spain or Espanol, rather than a family group of dogs.’ In the early 19th century, a puppy born with a stumpy tail became an exceptionally proficient worker in the field, and later when this dog was mated, more stumpy tailed pups were born, and these also were successful in the field. Thus the Brittany Spaniel as we know the breed today, became established. 

GENERAL APPEARANCE
Shoulder height: Standard - approximately 47cm (18½”).
Miniature - 35.5cm (14”).
Colour: Pure white with or without head markings. Parti-coloureds - preferably brindle/white but black, brindle, red fawn or tricolour are acceptable with colour predominating.
Coat: Short, harsh, flat with a fine gloss and tight skin.
Gait: Jaunty, easy with stifle and hocks flexing well.
Bull Terriers are the Gladiators of the canine race. They are strongly built and muscular with a determined glint in their eyes. Their egg shaped heads are distinctive with deeply set triangular eyes. The erect sharply pointed ears are placed close together on the skull. The body is strong, round and broad and the shortish tail is carried out horizontally. Fore and hindquarters are well angulated, the legs strong and the feet are round and compact.
CHARACTERISTICS AND CARE
In spite of their history as canine fighters, their relationship with people is one of love, friendliness and co-operation. They are happiest when in physical contact with members of their own family and make excellent watch dogs. This is one breed that should never spend its life chained up in a back yard. If purchasing a White bull terrier, it is advisable to check to see they are not deaf. Coat care is minimal with only periodic brushing needed.
HISTORY 
Prior to the 1850s, following crosses between the Bulldog and a terrier type of dog, the breed evolved was known as the Bull and Terrier. They were not very attractive with their bowed forelegs and thick blunt heads and came in a mixture and variety of colours. Their uses varied from ratting, badger hunting, bull baiting and fighting. In the early 1850s James Hinks developed a white strain, the result of crosses between the old Bull and Terrier, the old English White Terrier and the Dalmatian. By continuing to breed the whitest and gamest Terriers with each other, ultimately he eliminated all colour from his particular line. However the parti-coloured variety was not lost and today is accepted in the showring.

GENERAL APPEARANCE
Shoulder height: 61-68.5cm (24”-27”).
Colour: Brindle, red or fawn with black masks.
Coat: Short, hard, close and weather resisting.
Gait: Fore and hindlegs move straight forward with good hind propulsion. Strength and power are essential characteristics in the Bullmastiff but not to the point of becoming too cumbersome. The heads are large with shorter square broad muzzles. The dark eyes have a docile expression and the ears which are set high, hang close to the cheeks. The back is strong and straight and the high set tail is carried out when moving. The hindquarters are moderately angulated and the feet are catlike in shape. 
CHARACTERISTICS AND CARE
Bullmastiffs combine high spirits, reliability, endurance and alertness.
Weighing up to 60kg (l30lb) these dogs are not suitable children’s pets, however as a family companion they are both lovable, trustworthy and show strong guarding instincts. They only bark to attract attention so the causes always should be investigated. Being slow to mature physically, Bullmastiffs need plenty of calcium and vitamins up to 18 months of age. Coat care is minimal and only periodic brushing is required.
HISTORY
With poaching rife in Britain during the 17th and 18th centuries, gamekeepers found the Mastiffs too slow and cumbersome to be effective deterrents. As Bulldogs in those days were more active and agile but too small to bring a poacher to the ground, gamekeepers found the answer crossing the Mastiff with the Bulldog. The result was that the gamekeepers got a dog who retained the desired size and strength but with increased agility. While serving their purpose, Bullmastiffs, as they became known, varied greatly in appearance. It was not until 1924 when enough conformity in type was established, that they warranted breed registration in Britain. 

GENERAL APPEARANCE
Shoulder height: 28-31cm (1 1”-12”).
Colour: Nearly black, grey, red, wheaten, cream or brindle. Dark muzzle and ears are typical.
Coat: Outer coat — profuse, harsh but not coarse. Undercoat - short, soft and close. Weatherproof.
Gait: Smoothly co-ordinated with strong propulsion.
These hardy, game little terriers with their shaggy coats have a workmanlike appearance. The broad skull is surmounted by a profuse topknot of hair through which small darker coloured ears project. The widely set eyes are all but hidden by the shaggy eyebrows. The strong body with well sprung ribs is level and ends with an undocked gaily carried tail. The forefeet may turn out slightly.
CHARACTERISTICS AND CARE
The Cairn’s ability to kill vermin, foxes and badgers resulted in them being highly prized by the crofters in Scotland. Expected to use their own initiative, these terriers are both intelligent and independent. It should be realised that digging to a Cairn is like swimming to a fish. This is not a breed for conscientious gardeners. Being sensitive, firm training is more successful than harsh discipline. Living to 15 or so years, the Cairns make good companions to children who want a fun loving hardy playmate. Only periodic brushing is required to remove dead hair.
HISTORY
Cairn Terriers are one of the oldest of the Scottish breeds and take their name from the Gaelic word ‘cairn’ meaning a pile of stones. They were expected to go to ground after foxes and other short haired vermin found in west Scotland. They are extremely hardy as the rugged countryside is bleak and decidedly rocky. In order to survive on both land or water, these little dogs needed to be as tough as nails.
