Glass plate negative of the Jager (a huntsman) Cowley and two dogs, Dandie Dinmont (a Skye terrier) and Dankel (a dachshund), photographed at the Royal Kennels, Windsor Home Park. Dandie Dinmont was given to Queen Victoria by Prince Albert on 24 May 1842.

The glass plate negative has been photographed showing the coated side and therefore the image appears laterally reversed. A print from this negative exists in the Collection, RCIN 2940268.
