This book is about sporting terriers, that much-loved, quintessentially British, quite admirable group of dogs, favoured for centuries by the more humble type of hunter. Sporting Terriers is not a manual covering training, grooming, nutrition and dog care; it is a celebration of terriers' contribution to the sporting scene, an examination of their form, their function and their future in an increasingly urban society.

About the Author:
The author of eight previous books on dogs, and over 750 articles published in national and international magazines, Colonel David Hancock MBE has studied dogs for over half a century in more than twenty countries. In 2009 he won the annual award of the Dog Writers' Association of America, having been a runner-up two years earlier. He judges emergent terrier breeds such as the Lucas, Sporting Lucas and Plummer Terriers as well as working gundog tests. David wrote the breed standards for several emergent breeds, has advised television production companies on recent documentaries on dogs, and was a contributor to the Bateson Report, an inquiry into pedigree dog breeding in the UK.

Book Description Condition: new. (Hardcover, 2011). 2011 1st edition. 4to. Pp174,ad. Colour & b/w photographs throughout, b/w illustrations. Black boards. Mint in dust-wrapper. This is an interesting and useful new work by Colonel David Hancock (Heritage of the Dog, Bullmastiffs - A Breeder's Guide, etc.). Hancock examines the current state of terrier breeds in the light of where they came from. He then examines the direction many breeds are taking for the future, and considers a number of what he terms emergent breeds. Underlying the discussion throughout is the author's huge, life-long experience. A good book which has much to say which is original and useful. . Seller Inventory # 26054
