Eng. Ch. Diver of Woolley, b. 1927, son of Cubbington Diver, the dog in my gravatar.
He was bred by Mrs. Jacqueline Cottingham, and her “Woolley” dogs were the subjects of many of Reuben Ward Binks’s paintings, including this one.
He was very Mileyish, don’t you think?
Absolutely and the coat color appears to be spot-on.
The very wealthy Mrs Cottingham is interesting, from an historical standpoint, and not only for her dogs. No one really knows what happened to her after Sept. 1939 (the start of WWII) when she disappeared from the record. By that time, she had disposed of what dogs she may have still had, visited the US, then –??
