Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dog-Fancier's Guide: Plain Instructions for Breeding and Managing the Several Varieties of Field, Sporting, and Fancy Dogs, With the Most Approved Method of Distinguishing and Treating the Various Diseases to Which They Are Subject In a wild state, dogs live in hordes, and seek their prey like other untamed animals, except that they always hunt in packs, and thus run down their prey; but brought into connexion with human society, the very nature of the dog seems changed, he forfeits his liberty without regret, and seems most happy when belonging to a master to whom he can be faithful as a friend, servant, or companion. In domestication, his ambition seems to be, the desire to please; to offer his force, his courage, and all his useful talents, at the service of his master, seems to give him peculiar gratification; he waits his orders, to which he pays implicit obedience: he consults his looks, and a single glance is sufficient to put him in motion: he is faithful and constant, friendly with out interest, and grateful for the slightest favours more mindful of benefits received than injuries offered, he is not driven off by unkindness: he still continues submissive; and even licks the hand just lifted to strike him, and disarms resentment by sub missive perseverence.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dog-Fancier's Guide: Plain Instructions for Breeding and Managing the Several Varieties of Field, Sporting, and Fancy Dogs, With the Most Approved Method of Distinguishing and Treating the Various Diseases to Which They Are Subject The Dog has, in all ages and in all countries, been esteemed as the peculiar friend and companion of man: faithful to its trust, sincere in its attachments, and docile and affectionate in its intercourse with its master and the members of his family, this animal has indeed a superior claim to this title, which, by general consent, has been awarded to the species generally. Few animals of the same family differ so essentially from each other in size and appearance as the several varieties of the dog tribe: the wolf, the fox, and the jackal, are all included as belonging to the same class of animals, and are all termed the canine species; yet while the wolf, the fox, and the jackal, each present and retain their own peculiar similarity of shape and character, the dog itself has branched out into an almost innumerable variety, many of them marked with as much peculiarity of character, and dissimilarity of appearance, as if they were animals of a distinct and separate species.
