BNHKS Amu JfyTkt Katmg B -0 There are hunters who love their dogs and constantly associate with them—men who work their dogs both in season and out. They go in for “class dogs”. They understand them. But the average man, the casual hunt er, has no business with that kind of dog. So before starting your search for the right individual of any breed, have frankly and clearly in mind the kind of dog you’ll fit. According to Horace Lytle, author of many dog articles and frequent field-trial judge, that’s just as important as fitting the dog to the man. Your interest in dogs and hunting is an index to the kind of dog th .t will provide the best fit. If you hunt only a few days a year and are not prepared to devote a great deal of time and money in keeping your dog in top condition, a field-trial type pointer or setter will be inappropriate.

You might find the right one among jßrittanys or German shorthairs. If jyou don’t want a dog that points 'game, investigate the possibility of J getting a springer, American water spaniel, Labrador, or others. A gentleman recently told me that while he has had beagles ail his life he now hunts mostly for pheasant in northern Ohio. He loses too many cripples, and wondered about getting either a Chesapeake or Labrador as a game saver. He had something there. An American water spaniel or springer might also suit him admira bly. Many beagles are used to hunt pheasant, and the basset is good at this too. There is a much more certain pat tern to follow in choosing hounds.
