Description

When they wrote the standard for smooth fox terriers "they closed their eyes and dreamed of Saddler." So said Winthrop Rutherfurd the grand old man of smooth fox terrier breeders in 1939 at age 80. This book is the true story from puppyhood of Champion Nornay Saddler. He won fifty-nine best-in-show awards including Morris & Essex, more than any other dog at that time. 205 pages. Many black & white photographs. "Flip-o-matic" pictures allow you to see Saddler in motion (gaiting). This book is prized as a collector's item by fanciers of the breed, but reads like a novel and will tug at your heart if you love dogs.
