Description:This volume was published in 1919. From the book's Preface: This little volume is written to furnish an up-to-date book confined exclusively to the breeds of American hunting dogs in use today. Without a dog, sports afield nowadays are apt to prove rather barren in results in the game bag. Never before have American sportsmen relied so much on the dog as a finder of game. Our coverts, while holding their own and somewhat increasing, are far depleted compared to the abundance that obtained thirty years ago. It takes the fine, sensitive gift of a dog's instinct to locate game nowadays. Without him the day is likely to be one of exasperation, due to game flushing without warning or good covers hunted without starting anything. With him a satisfactory day's bag can be had in any part of our country where there is wild land, even quite near the great cities. The love of a dog is a fine and noble thing. There is no quid pro quo in his affection. He has no thought of service for hire, nor reward for his invaluable aid, save that you love him as he loves you. All the rest is service, given freely and loyally. To combine this dog-love with the wonderfully gifted genius of a fine hunting dog seems the acme of canine destiny. If you are to own a dog, or several of them, why not have one that can share and appre- ciate your days in the great outdoors? How to choose such a hunting companion intelligently and from the selection of dogs that are living today; how to raise him from puppyhood to maturity; how to train him for staunch and efficient field service--- to tell of these is the purpose of this volume.
