Circa 1896- Photo of puppy class at the Ladies Kennel Association show – England

LADIES KENNEL ASSOCIATION  THE FIRST 100 YEARS  (photo credit)   – The puppy class circa 1896


The article below was one of two  that I had saved for reference written by Nic Waters of Dog World UK magazine, which no longer exists since July 2017.   The photo was so tiny and I did my best to blow it up to see these very famous NAMED people and chows.  I’m on the hunt for the book “The Ladies Kennel Association: The First Hundred Years by Peggy Grayson” to see if there is a crisper copy (contact [email protected]).  This photo and article are a priceless  time capsule  for our breed history archives.  The mention of Queen Victoria’s Chinese dogs by name (possibly chows) is a valuable piece of information to take note of.

I do my best to be as accurate as possible in my research, however many times written history finds a way to "morph" over time. I love your comments and appreciate all feedback, additions and corrections my readers have to offer to help make this a well rounded and accurate archive.
