Excerpt from With Hound and Terrier in the Field: Hunting Reminiscences At the time when he was hunting in Dorset, some Of the keenest men with hounds were clergy men, and very remarkable characters they were. The Rev. Harry Farr Yeatman, of Stock House, owned a pack of hounds with which he hunted fox, hare, and roe-deer in the Stock coverts and parts Of Somersetshire. These hounds were dwarf fox hounds, and only stood twenty or twenty one inches, but they had been drawn from all the best kennels in England by Mr George Templar Of Devonshire, from whose possession they passed to that of Mr Yeatman in the year 1826. The roe deer which this pack Often hunted were brought into the country by Lord Dorchester, and from that time to the present they have lived in the woods and hills Of the wilder districts.

Not illustrated. 1904 edition. Excerpt: ... dead in the course of a run, as his master was in the act of opening a gate for Lady Theodora Grosvenor. Lord Wolverton kept the mastership of the bloodhound pack till the year 1880, and he showed good sport, though, as I have said, there was even more uncertainty about the quality of the hunting than with foxhounds. Like other members of his family, Lord Wolverton was devoted to sport. He had been entered early with the V.W.H. and the Old Berkshire Hounds, and later he was well known with Baron Bothschild and in Essex. After he sold the bloodhounds to Lord Carrington, he hunted the country round Iwerne with harriers. The bloodhounds were not a success with Lord Carrington, and he parted with them after one season to the Comte le Conteulx le Canteleu, who used them for hunting the deer and the wild boar. At the latter sport I believe they were hardly courageous enough to be successful. It was evident in the days when the bloodhounds were in the Vale that they required the most careful handling. As the bloodhound does not "pack" naturally, he is inclined to trust too much to himself, and to take no notice of what his fellows are doing. He is shy and nervous, and if rated or struck will turn sulky and refuse to work. It was therefore by his study of the character of his hounds and his individual knowledge of each, as well as by his unfailing patience, that Lord Wolverton showed the sport he did. A characteristic of the hounds was that they hunted entirely by scent, never raising their heads for a view, this trait doubtless coming from their ancestors the black St Huberts, which were used for hunting the dense forests of the Ardennes, in which they could only run by scent. Some twenty years before Lord Wolverton was hunting in Dorset, Mr...

This is one of the few early 20th century dog books to deal solely with the true `Working Terrier'. Now very scarce and much sought after in its original limited edition, it has been reprinted by Read Country Books in a high quality hard back format. Written by an expert in both breeding and working terriers, the book is packed with practical advice, and includes many original photographs of terriers in action against a variety of quarry. J.C. Bristow-Noble was well known in his time as a breeder of top quality sporting terriers. He spent many years experimenting with cross-breeding Fox terriers and Sealyhams with other dog breeds and occasionally with famous mongrel terriers, before finally concentrating on Jack Russell terriers, always keeping the description of Russell's famous "Trump" in his mind's eye. His ideal sporting terrier for entering to badger, fox and other quarry was a thick-set 14 pound (lb), hard/dense coated dog with a muzzle of moderate length and an even and fairly thick jaw bone. This rule of thumb eventually led to him owning a kennel of working dogs second to none and well-known throughout the country. His terriers were regularly sold for sums in excess of 50.00 - an enormous sum of money in the early 1900s. His stud dogs were also much in demand even at his minimum stud fee of 10 guineas.
