Sussex Spaniel - vintage card
1938

The Sussex Spaniel is a famous old breed, well adapted to working game among the brush of his native county. His characteristic golden liver colour has been recognised for a hundred and fifty years, and also the varying note that he continually utters when at work. He is rather heavily built, the head especially giving a massive impression, but there is nothing clumsy or slothful about him; on the contrary he is a lively worker.
