Canvas 21 x 15.5 ins.
The three dogs are Ch.Dry Toast, in the foreground, Ch.Winning Number of Solway and Ch.Nimble of Hamsey. Dry Toast was the model used by Royal Doulton for the English Springer introduced into their'Champions Dogs' series in 1938. Nimble won the Challenge Certificate at Crufts in 1936 and '37 and Winning Number won in 1932 and '35. Many generations back, Winning Number is in the Pedigrees of several winning dogs today. Dry Toast had winning progeny worldwide and is behind famous dogs owned by Mrs. Howard, Lady Lambe and Miss Francis and because of the bitches he was used on, is behind many successful Field Trial dogs as well as show dogs

Note - There is increased concern among dog welfare organisations, the veterinary profession, dog breed clubs and scientific researchers about the health and welfare of brachycephalic (flat faced) dogs due to the amount they are used in advertising and to endorse/sell products. We would strongly discourage using images of these breeds (such as the French Bulldog, Pug and Bulldog) for purposes that are not breed-specific, such as to promote unrelated products or services
