Trontmoht of 'a Dog.
A dg Is a pet, a friend and a help
er. The confidence of a dog, once lost.
Is hard to regain.
In teaching tricks always reward the
dog with some tidbit when he mnn
ages the trick properly. ...
A dog can bo so trained that he will
watch a cat cat' without attempting to
touch tho food himself.
When you go into a yard and a dog
growls as ho conies to meet you speak
kindly, act as though you wero not
afraid of htm and Iiq will regard you
rather ns a friend than as an enemy.
