Few of the thousands Of people who
wildly applaud the amusing, and at
times almost marvellous, feats executed
by performing dogs have any idea OF
the time and patience required to teach
the animals. A reporter of the New
York Times was SO fortunate as to run
across a veteran dog trainer who had
just finished successful European sea-
son. A few questions brought cut
some most interesting facts relative to
educated dogs and dog educators.
"It is great mistake to- suppose, :"
said this famous dog trainer, 'that all
dogs can be made to perform any
trick, however simple, successfully. 1t
is equally true-and too much EN-
phasiS cannot be put on the fact-that
perhaps not one man in every five
thousand is fit to educate dog. You
may laugh at this assertion, but it is
painfully true, nevertheless. First Of
all, man who intends to be success
full with dogs must really loye the an
imals. Dogs, far more than any
dumb brutes, are most susceptible to
impressions and kind treatment. Let
dog once and for all understand that
you do not wish to hurt or harm him
and he will amply repay you for your
labor. | would under no conditions
have dog handled by man who did
not have the kindest of dispositions as
well as an almost inexhaustible amount
of patience. This given, let the work
begin.

the slightest hesitation or error.
CHOW, such a thing as this is simply
the A B c of dog education. 1t is a
totally different matter to make dog
perform the most intricate tricks. The
natural position of the animal is rest
ing on its four feet; any trick in which
he is permitted to retain this position
is comparatively easy to make him do.
| have a fox terrier which | have
taught to roll ball or small cylin-
der in any observation-disclosures, back
ward or forward. Now, the strangest
part of this trick-that that which ap-
pears the very hardest is for the dog
evidently the easiest. He will get
up with his four feet on ball not
much larger than an ordinary toy bal
loon and roll it everywhere, in what
ever direction you wish, with evident
plasure and ease. But when he has
to put two paws, whether, front or hind
on the ball, and the other two on the
floor, he does not do it nearly SO we'll
nor with any pleasure. This is be-
cause the animal does not feel SO sure
as when he stal DIS with his four feet
pretty close together. This terrier
will roll a ball up or down a steep in
cline, while standing on it, with relish,
but put his ears back and look fright
ened to death if he is told to only
use his forepaws in rolling it on the
level floor.
"While it is true that almost any
trick can be taught by persuasion, still

it is often necessary to use force. When
a dog feels or instnctively knows that
what he is being taught is in no wise
