Thanks JMR27. Think Coyote is right and possibly Poodle but agree it is an odd clue.
Wilmay. Don't think the answer will be "The Laughing Cavalier" as that isn't a breed of dog and I already have King Charles Spaniel. Thanks for your help though

wilmay

I know that, but it fitted the letters given........

JMR27

4. Old English Sheepdog?

TrishK7

The Laughing Cavalier was painted by Franz Hals not Gainsbough.
How can King Charles Spaniel fit in if the letters are 3, 7 and 8?
To be honest the clues look like they have been set by an amateur.

The answer to 'Portrayed regularly by Gainsborough' is Old English Sheepdog, painted first in 1771. Thank you JMR27.

I also think 'The Restless Oaf 'might be Tyke

Just need to find answers to 1 & 2 now
