  • The Manchester Terrier Is One Breed With
    The Manchester Terrier: Description and History: Description: The Manchester is a hardy and long-lived breed. They are very adaptable and make an excellent and devoted companion for most people. Equally at home in the country or city, the Manchester is intelligence, versatile, and naturally clean in his habits. This has prompted breed fanciers to conclude that “As a sagacious, intelligent house pet and companion, no breed is superior to the well-bred Manchester Terrier." (AKC's Complete Dog Book) In America, the Manchester Terrier is considered to be one breed with two varieties: the Standard and the Toy. The Toy variety can weigh up to 12 pounds and has only naturally erect ears. The Standard variety weighs over 12 pounds but not over 22 pounds, and may have three ear types: cropped, button, or naturally erect like the Toys. (See pictures below). Cropped ears Button ears Naturally Erect ears Photograph and computer imagery by Carolyn Horowitz In both varieties, the only allowable color is black and tan. This accounts for the breed's original name -- the Black and Tan Terrier. The placement and brilliant contrast of the tan markings against the black face and the black markings against the tan legs, while occurring naturally, are essential to the dog's work as a ratter. A cornered rat will always go for its attacker's eyes to disable it; the bright tan spots around the less visible black eyes of the Manchester Terrier draw the rat to leap for the spots and miss its intended target. Following is a short history of the development of the Manchester Terrier in England and America.

  • The Evolution of the English Toy Terrier (Black & Tan)
    The Evolution of the English Toy Terrier (Black & Tan) The Perspective of History By John R. F. Richardson (Reeberrich) I will commence by providing some of my own background on this subject, as I will be not known, these days, to most exhibitors, and to certainly ever fewer as the decades roll by ! Although at University I read English, history has always been a real passion of mine. Architectural, Political (NOT dog politics, I’ve never got involved in those), Fashion, Art, Literature, but primarily Social History. Researching the history of breeds I owned was always a natural ‘follow on ‘. I began to research the background of the ETT even before I decided to have them. Once I was ‘in’ the breed, as time went on, other breed aficionados became cognisant of my interest, and thus correspondence and copies of articles & documents were forwarded on to me. Correspondents included Frank Palmer, Dorothy Hammett, Kitty Voce, Zoe Plowright, Colin Zarifi and Petronelle Kitson, all people with a long association with the breed, thus helping me link the past with the present. So………where did it all begin! There isn’t, of course, a true beginning; certainly, not yet definitively proven. Ratting dogs, will have been in existence ever since a need was identified to control rats. These dogs would have been selected only on their ratting ability. Colour, size etc. would not have been a deciding factor until it was found over time that certain traits produced a better ratter. Society became much more open with the rise of the ‘ middling’ classes, and the explosion of the industrial revolution in Georgian England.

Phillips 1 1 Centre for Animal Welfare and Ethics, University of Queensland, White House Building (8134), Gatton Campus, Gatton, QLD 4343, Australia 2 Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Queensland, Brisbane, QLD 4076, Australia * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 20 May 2019; Accepted: 24 June 2019; Published: 26 June 2019 Simple Summary: This retrospective study involves 107,597 dog welfare complaints received by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) Queensland from 2008 to 2018. Results show that, compared to pure breed dogs, cross-breed dogs were more likely to be reported in welfare complaints. Poisoning, lack of veterinary support, abuse, and being left unattended in a hot vehicle were common complaints in pure breed dogs; while insufficient shelter, exercise and food/water, as well as overcrowding and abandonment, were more commonly reported in cross breed dogs. Utility breeds, terriers and working dogs were most likely to be reported, while toy, non-sporting breeds and gundogs were least likely to be reported. Common complaint types for utility dogs were: insufficient food/water, shelter and exercise, and poor living conditions; for terriers: abandonment, intentional abuses and killing or injuring another animal; for working dogs: insufficient food/water, shelter and exercise; for toy dogs: lack of veterinary care, overcrowding and staying in a hot vehicle alone; for non-sporting dogs: lack of veterinary care, being left in a hot vehicle unattended and poor body conditions; and for hounds: killing or injuring another animal, intentional abuses and poor body conditions.
