The 1ailg Argns,
How shepherd Dogs are Trained.

You may 90 over the plains and hills of
Southern California for miles and see
thousands of sheep but not man to watch
them. Around each fock or band of, saw.
a thousand sheer, are half dozen dogs of
a peculiar breed-dogs whose progenitors
were imported from the sheep pastures of
the Old World. These dogs take the en-
tire care of the sheep, drive them out to
the pasture in the morning, keep them
rom straying during the day and bring
item home at night They have inherited
a talent for keeping sheep. But the shep-
herds do not depend wholly on that they
cultivate it in this way-so, at least, the
I'D shepherds say: When lamb is born
it is taken away from the mother sheep
before she has seen it, and puppy put in
its place. The sheep suckles the puppy
and learns to 1--we it. When the puppy
gets old enough to eat meat, il is fed III the
morning and sent out with the sheep. 1t
stays with them because it is accustomed
TO be with its mother, but it cannot feed
with them. As they get full the dog gets
hungry. AT length, impatient to return
where it hopes to get another piece of
meat, il begins to tease and worry its
mother, and finally starts her toward
home, the other sheep follow, and thus
the whole flock is brought in. If the dog
brings the sheep home too soon, or comes
without them, he gets no supper, or is
punished in some way Hence he soon
learns when to come, and to see that none
If his charge are left behind. These AMI
mails are trained by taking advantage of
their instincts and appetites.
