A foxhound, as every sportsman knows.
If caught in a trap or suffering pain from
an injury, is most dangerous to approach.
Even if you assist him out of a difficulty
-rsay, from a pit r hole where, but for
you, he would probably be drowned he
will show his gratitude by biting you.
Pointers, setters and spaniels, though not
quite so ready with their teeth, wilk un
der similar circumstances, bite not only
strangers, but their own masters without
cTuple.
The Cat coated retriever is totally di
similar in this respect and can be han
dled without the slightest risk. I hav
got them out of all sorts of difficulties
and never once met with injury. In do
lus so you may fearlessly let their head
rest on your shoulder or lie against youi
face. Quite recently a valuable dog of
mine got hung up in a wire fence,, and a
dislocation of the stifle or soma serious
Injury seemed imminent. Running up, I
lifted bira bodily, struggling and terrified
as he-was, yet the idea of biting occurred
neither to tho helper nor the helped.
