Study of a small girl with a prize Scottish terrier dog, c. 1935 / by Sam Hood

nobody@flickr.com (State Library of New South Wales collection) — Mon, 19 Jan 2009 17:51:55 -0800

Format: Glass photonegative

Notes: For a similar image of this little girl and her dog, with a slightly different mood, have a look at our catalogue: acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/item/itemLarge.aspx?itemID=9140

The Library's catalogue record for this photograph calls this dog a Scottish terrier. For many years the phrase 'Scottish terrier' related to any of several terrier breeds which originated in Scotland, including West HIghland, Skye, Cairn and Aberdeen terriers. This dog is probably a Skye or Cairn terrier.
