During these years, ancient canine breeds were defined and refined into modern breeds that are now beloved domesticated family members in millions of households.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThree enduring organizations were founded in this pivotal era: the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (1866), the Westminster Kennel Club (1877), and the American Kennel Club (1884).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDogs had long been bred for specific localized tasks-hunting, retrieving, herding, protecting property, pulling a sled, turning a wheel-but there were no established standards or criteria for breeds. The Victorian Era gave birth to widespread controlled breeding. Kennel clubs in England, Holland, Germany and other countries began standardized breeding in the 1850s.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe public was introduced to new breeds through the only media available: printed newspapers, books and magazines. The photographs and illustrations they published inspired affections Americans began to feel toward favorite breeds. Public enlightenment led to banning brutal animal sports like bull-baiting, bear-baiting, and dog-fighting in many regions of the country.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe illustrations are presented in chronological order by publication date. The Index is divided into separate sections for breeds and general subjects.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFeatured breeds include the retriever, pointer, poodle, beagle, bulldog, Newfoundland, mastiff, shepherd, collie, dachshund, great Dane, dalmatian, wolf dog, St. Bernard, sheep dog, Mexican hairless, pugs, setters (Irish setter, English setter, Gordon setter), hounds (greyhound, foxhound, bloodhound, basset hound, deerhound), spaniels (cocker spaniel, clumber spaniel, Irish water spaniel), terriers (Airedale terrier, Bedlington terrier, black and tan terrier, Boston terrier, bull terrier, English terrier, fox terrier, Irish terrier, Maltese terrier, otter terrier, Scotch terrier, Yorkshire terrier), and lots of puppies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Lost Century of Sports Collection\u003c\/i\u003e publishes time capsules from the birth of American sports in the 19th century.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFootball books in \u003ci\u003eThe Lost Century of Sports Collection\u003c\/i\u003e are: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
