boiled liver or other tidbit and has
laid the foundation for a future
show career.
His method of picking up the
baby, standing him just so, getting
his attention for the bit of food and
submitting to handling and groom
ing. contain the rudiments OF the
whole art.
However, very few of us are capa-
BILE of starting with pup so young
Many decide to put a dog in a
show very close to the final closing
date. and then begin to wonder
what to do. Much can be done in
very short time.
Exercise on the lead is of great
importance. The dog should move
freely and willingly while on the
lead. should neither pull nor lag.
He may be trained to do this oy
frequent jaunts on the lead If he is
refractory, a few walks wearing q
chain choke collar instead of the
usual leather one, generally will cure
him OF both pulling and tagging,
without harming him in the least.
When you stop, the dog should stop.
Dog Should Be Rewarded.
II possible, he should be trained
to assume natural pose when ne
stops. If he does not assume this
himself, he should be taught to al
low you to pose him, which in most
breeds means front legs straight
and parallel, hind legs slightly back
and parallel, head up, eyes on you.
The head up and eyes on you are
easily obtained If he has learned
that you will sooner or later in the
course Of this game produce some
thing he likes very much, be it a
bit OF food, favorite ball or other
toy. If he can see or smell this
thing, his attention will be doubly
eager.
One professional handler eats pea
nuts all the time he is in the ring.
The crunching sound has fascina-
ton for his charges which keeps
them looking their keenest.
Remember, always, that
while the dog, ostensibly, does
the winning or losing, he may
be greatly helped or hindered
In the competition by his
handler.
Dog and handler are 4 team. Co.
operation between the two often
makes the difference between VIC
tory and defeat.
1t takes a very fine dog to over
come the handicap of a poor ham
dler-but it has been done. Like
wise, good handler often has put
over mediocre dog, although 1t
takes very fine one to put over 4
downright poor dog.
Increase in Breeds Slow.
In 1885 the American Kennel
Club took over the existing stud
book, which at that time kept re-
cords Of 10 breeds Of dogs. Between
then and 1888, 81 breeds were added
