Raised Pewter Profile of Smooth Fox Terrier on Wood Plaque. Lovingly detailed dog brightly stands out against the dark wood.
Size: 7 x 7 x 1 in.
#4352 .
The Smooth Fox Terrier is a breed of dog, one of many terrier breeds. Their long, smooth snouts are reminiscent of greyhounds, and their size and shape is somewhat similar to whippets, but it is their distinctive forward-curling ears that can easily differentiate them at a distance. They were the first breed in the fox terrier family to be given official recognition by The Kennel Club (circa 1875, breed standard 1876). They are well known in hunting and show circles, and are extremely significant due to the large number of terriers believed descended from the breed. The Smooth Fox Terrier’s original development is largely undocumented, but the dog has been known as a distinct breed in England since at least the 18th Century, as the first documented evidence of the Smooth Fox Terrier came in 1790 when Colonel Thomas Thornton painted a portrait of his dog, Pitch. The Smooth Fox Terrier entered the show ring during the mid-19th Century, making them one of the earliest entrants in such events. The American Kennel Club recognized the Fox Terrier in 1885, and one hundred years later recognized the Smooth Fox Terrier as being a distinct breed from the Wire Fox Terrier. Whereas the Wire Fox Terrier is probably directly descended from the Rough Black and Tan Terrier of Wales, the Smooth Fox Terrier is thought to count the Smooth Black and Tan Terrier as their primary ancestor, with traces of Beagle and Bull Terrier thrown in as well. However, the two breeds were considered to be varieties of one breed and were occasionally interbred until the mid 1980s when the AKC changed them from varieties to separate breeds. The Smooth Fox Terrier’s historic profession is fox bolting. A fox bolting dog will accompany a pack of foxhounds and “bolt” after foxes, driving them out from their hiding spots and into the line of sight of the larger dogs and men on horses. Smooth Fox Terriers with white coats were less likely to be mistaken for the fox in close combat situations, and were therefore more highly prized.
