Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dogs of the British Islands: Being a Series of Articles on the Points of Their Various Breeds, and the Treatment of the Disease to Which They Are Subject Ince the third edition of this book was published so Short a time has elapsed that very little change in, or addition to, the Dogs of the British Islands is to be noticed. In the sporting division a warm controversy has for some time been going on with regard to the breeding of the Laverack setter, one party alleging that all of this breed are descended from one pair mentioned by Mr. Laverack as the sole progenitors of his strain, while the other maintain (1st) that Mr. Laverack himself admitted, both orally and in writing, that he had used importations from other kennels; and (2md) that it is incredible that the average age (9) necessary to show the truth of the Adam and Eve theory is within the bounds of possibility. My own Opinion is that the second of these objections is enough to dispose of this theory to the satisfaction of any person of average powers, but that the first is not by any means 'proved. In any case the question is of no importance, for the breed is now to be regarded from actual results, and not from theoretical grounds which ought entirely to give way before our experience of its merits or demerits, whichever may be in excess. Now, on the Show bench, the Laveracks (so called) have held their own both in this country and abroad, but in the field they have stood no chance against the crosses with other strains, and especially with those used by Mr. Purcell Llewellin, whose breed, now called Llewellin's, should therefore be preferred. With this exception there has been little or no novelty in any class of sporting dogs described by me in the previous editions, but I have added an article on the French Basset, now extensively bred in this country, written by Mr. Krehl, which will be read with especial interest by the admirers of that dog, and also by hound men in general.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1872 edition. Excerpt: ...found under Alano, in the dictionary compiled some two hundred years ago by the Spanish Academy--the alan was "a large, high-couragcd dog, used in bull-fights fiestas de toros) to pull the bulls down by hanging on to their ears, also for hunting wolves, wild boars, and other large beasts of chace, and for guarding the house." Thus he seems to have been the Spanish mastiff. I pass over the fact that Strutt writes "alaunts or bulldogs," aud that modern dictionaries generally render alano by bulldog, and bulldog by alano. I ground my opinion on the statements of writers who describe animals they had seen and were familiar with. I cannot trace the alan in any English authority before Chaucer, who describes him as a white dog used in the chase of the "leon and the bere;" nor can I find him amongst the early dogs of France or Germany, though he was evidently largoly used for crossing as soon as he was well knowD. Hence I think that, like the originals of the spaniel, setter, and pointer, he came from Spain. Our modern hound combines scenting quality with speed, but "Carrier" must be aware that our predecessors once used to hunt with swift hounds and scenting hounds. I must refer him to "L'Art de Venerie," by Turci, huntsman to Edward II., for the proper method of putting up the hare with scenting hounds and chasing her with fast hounds; much as the spaniel, or his predecessor, put up, the game at which the hawk was flown. The German in the thirteenth century, when he rode in the. forest, was bound to have his winden and bracken (fast hounds and scenting hounds) coupled. The "Maister of the Game" will give him further hints about what was done in the time of Henry V., and an old French...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dogs of the British Islands: Being a Series of Articles and Letters, Reprinted From the "Field" Newspaper Of Sporting dogs there was less need for discussion, as the Several varieties were pretty well known to sportsmen 3 and, with the exception of the correspondence relating to the origin of the Gordon setter, to the various Cockers, and to the Sussex spaniel and the Retriever proper, there is little novelty to be found in the second edition of this book. The portrait of the Gordon setter Kent, with which great fault was found, has been replaced by a more faithful one; and Roll has been added to Byron as illustrating another strain of the English setter. The points of the various breeds have been, in nearly every case, care fully revised, and more minutely dissected, than they were before; and it is hoped that this will meet the views of the' majority of breeders of the Dog. Several fresh chapters have been added by the Editor on the Management of Dogs, in point of food and lodging, while the treatment of Distemper, Mange, and other parasites, has been brie y but plainly laid down.
