II. L..
Cal, reports that she has just brought
out from Chicago a handsome little
Japanese spaniel dog puppy, weighing
one pound and seven ounces. The sire
Mikado weighs four and half pounds.
Mr.. William w. Silvey of Buffalo. N. Y.
has decided to invade the western dog
market with his famous Boston ter
riers. Something that should be great
help to him in making sales is the
fact that he guarantees the safe de-
livery of the dog.
The Associated Speciality Dog clubs
will hold their annual show at
the Bismarck garden, Chicago. on
September 20. Terriers are particu-
larly strong just now in the middle
west, and the same remark applies to
the collies
Mr.. Thomas Grisdale of New York
judged bulldogs at the Prestwich show,
near Manchester. and at the Dundee
show in England some three or four
days back.
Champion Collarbone of Notts not
only headed the dogs at the National
Terrier club show at Bristol, Eng, but
also won the club shield for the best
of all breeds in the show. He is said
to be one of the best coated, white
haired fox terriers in England.
At the same show Dargle Deeuty,
beautiful Airedale bitch. wep the
championship. So famous has this
| bitch become that the writer has seen
no less than three kennels publishing
Deputy's picture as the photo OF one
of their dogs. Mentioning names,
however, is not polite, so we will con-
| tinue to watch for the time that one of
the above three kennel owners shall
| see the others ads
Mr.. George S. Thomas of Hamilton.
Mass, attempted at the Brussels show
to buy a dog that was on the bench
for exhibition only" He was not sue
cessfu1, and George Raper tried his
| luck, but the price was prohibitive.
The dog was the famous Champion Rex
Van der Tennera and one OF the finest
| Aireda1es alive.
Do not forget to send In your news
and photos on the Wednesday preced-
ing the date for which intended. Your
little news is interesting to somebody,
just as his news is interesting to you.
And did you notice that last week
The Calls kennel department carried
four times as much kennel advertising
as the other two San Francisco morn
ing papers combined? Why? Because
the fanciers realize that in order to get
results they must advertise where the
public looks for their ad. They must
have their ads on the same page as the
kennel news. To bring results, your
ad must be next to good dog photos to
attract attention. Your ad must be in
a newspaper that reaches the homes
one that the public turns to for their
doggy news.
Mamie Levy. the San Francisco
Boston terrier fancier reports that
business is brisk at his kennels. He
reports numerous sales.
Mr.. F. G. Warmers Airedale stud
Glass Mountain Recruit. is still improv-
ing. He is a young dog, has beautiful
dark eyes. almost black. set in a long.
clean head. He is nice in front short
bodied, with good strong hind quar-
ters and the correct texture of coat
Mr.. Warner has evidently proven his
dogs worth as stud dog, as he guar
antees all services.
Mr.. Rochester. an enthusiastic Aire
dale fancier of Chicago, has located in
San Diego, where he again will gather
together some champions of this breed.
In Chicago his kennels included some
champions. and we wish him the same
success ont here as he had in the cast.
One of his champions he bred himself.
Mr.. r.. L. Kendell, owner of the fa-
NOUS Orkney kennels of San Diego,
has just shipped a. nice Aireda1e to Mr..
Norman Rushton of San Francisco. He
reports numerous other sales through
out southern California.
We hear that DIR. Herbert r. Rodley.
owner of the Hooker Oak kennels at
Chico. Cal, has added another crack
Irish water spaniel to his kennels.
This is not a surprise, as Doctor Rod
ley has never spared expense in keep
ing up the record of his kennel as one
of the finest in America and the best
in the west. There was general re-
port some time back that Doctor Rod
ley had retired from the dog fancy.
One look at the winners in his kennels
would quiet the rumor.
The Golden Gate kennels find that
business is brisk in their new boarding
kennels. They maintain an Office and
saIesroom in San Francisco, but have
a ranch on the Oakland side of the bay
for the boarders.
Mr. w Ballantyne of Goldfeld, New.
has played the part of the still water
that runs deep. Although he has not
appeared to any extent at the shows
recently, he has been breeding good
ones. Few of the newer bulldog fam
ciers know that his kennels contain
some of the best English bulldogs in
the west. His Billy the Verger is a
hard one to best in head quality and is
nice one all over.
The Vendome kennels report their
French bulldog, Pol Roger, as busy as
ever. He has shown himself to be one
of the most successful stud dogs OF
any breed on the Pacific coast.
The Tunitas kennels are gradually
showing to the public that their great
young Airedale, 500 Swive1er, is des
tined to make history as a stud dog.
The writer dropped in at the Dun
dreggan kennels a short time ago and
1t was indeed a pleasure to see dogs
dreggan Scottish terriers. Miss Alice
Hager. owner of the kennels, has un-
doubtedly one of the best kennels de-
voted to that breed in America.
