Chapter XXXII. The Black Wavy-Coated Retriever
Perhaps the sires that have exercised most influence in stamping- the character of the present generation of retrievers under discussion are the two Wyndhams, the one the property of that well known and successful breeder, Mr. J. D. Gorse, the younger dog owned by Mr. T. Meyrick, M.P., the latter dog much used by that other most successful of retriever breeders, the late JohnD. Hull; Paris, owned by Mr. S. E. Shirley, M.P., and bred from imported Labrador parents; Major Allison's Victor, and Mr. Chattock's Cato, both without known pedigree. Dr. Bond Moore paid considerable attention to this breed some years ago, his kennels were principally of Hull's strain, and he had some remarkably fine specimens. I remember seeing a litter of Midnight's, if I mistake not, in Dr. Bond Moore's kennels, in which were two fine pups of a pale liver colour, although both parents and grand parents were jet black. |
