I am pleased to be able to give a capital and life-like portrait of the above popular fancier and sportsman, known to so many of my readers as a terror amongst the Welshmen, as he probably owns not only the best kennel of Welsh Terriers in existence, the majority of his own breeding, but, in my opinion, taking all-round quality, size, shape, coats, colour, and uniformity of type, by far the best kennel that has ever been seen of the variety in the possession of one person.

His prefix of "Bryn-hir" is well known, and when it is seen tacked on to the name of any of the Terrier varieties (for our subject also goes in for Fox-terriers and Scots) favoured by Mr. Glynn, the animal is unlikely to be a second-rater.

Amongst some of the best known of the Welshmen I may name the celebrated Champion Dim Sarsonaeg (whose victories on the benches have been many and great), Champion Brynhir Burner, Champion Brynhir Ballad (a bitch I greatly admire, and consider, with Brynhir Boiler and Brynhir Blossom, a wonderful team is formed); then there are Brynhir Boxer and Brynhir Bracelet, and the brood bitches Brynhir Heli Nell, Brynhir Baggage, and Blinkbonny.

Some idea may be formed of the quality and character of these Terriers when I mention I have on several occasions had teams of them, with many other non-sporting teams, at large shows to compete for the Best Non-Sporting Team prize, and they have not been out of the first four, and sometimes were in the first two, in the strongest competition they could meet.

Mr. Glynn began with Fox-terriers, and still keeps some, but has not of late years paid so much attention to them as to the Welshmen and Scots, of which latter he has bred from his Brynhir Baby some useful stock.

An active, intelligent member of the Committees of the Kennel Club, Fox-terrier Club, and Welsh Terrier Club, he takes a lively and active interest in doggy affairs, in respect to which he is no sleeping partner, while his practical common sense and invariably courteous demeanour make him universally popular in all assemblies of Doggy People.

By the courtesy of their owner I am able to give excellent portraits of one of Mr. Glynn's Welsh Terriers, Champion Brynhir Ballad, and one of his Scottish Terriers, Brynhir Baby, both often seen in the prize lists, and the former considered the best all round specimen of the variety ever exhibited.
