The Sealyham Terrier.

Mr William .E. De Winton, of Burwash, Sussex, has kindly sent to us a photograph of Dusty, a noted Sealyham terrier in her day, with permission to reproduce it in the Field. Dusty was presented to the late Lord Kensington, captain in the 2nd Life Guards, by Mr John Edwardes, of Sealyham, who considered her to be one of his best terriers. Her colouring was lemon, darker on the ears, but with no black hairs. Her coat was usually much worn as she practically lived hunting on the sea cliffs at St.Bride´s, but when shut up for a time her jacket became thick and harsh. Her tail was undocked. Comparison between the past and present type of any variety of dog is interesting and though exception may be taken to the size of Dusty´s ears, we question whether any Sealyham of today is so straight in front, judged by the photograph, for the use of which we are greatly indebted to our correspondent.
