. The new book of the dog; a comprehensive natural history of British dogs and their foreign relatives, with chapters on law, breeding, kennel management, and veterinary treatment. Dogs. GRIFFON KORTHALS CH. RIP DU MAKIS. BRED BY M. A HUCHEDE. to perfection by M. E. Boulet, of Elbeuf. Superficially they are all three of similar Otterhound type of compact, straight- legged, wire-haired dog ; but the Griffon Guerlain strain is perhaps the most ele- gant in shape and appearance, owing to its shorter and less rugged coat and lighter build. This breed is usually white in colour, with orange or yellow markings, rather short drop ears, and a docked tail, and with a height of about 22 inches. The nose is always brown, and the light eyes are not. hidden by the prominent eyebrows so frequent in the French Spaniels. By far the most attractive of all the foreign Setter- Spaniels, however, is the Korthals Griffon, a dog symmetrical in contour,with a noble head not unlike that of our Airedale Terrier in its length and squareness of muzzle, and determined expression of eye. The coat is wiry, crisp, and harsh, never curly, with a dense undercoat. The colour is steel grey.
