many of the tricks a dog can do. But this can only be done by kind 

 treatment, plenty of petting and by feeding him well. 



There are dogs and cats, too, that have mean dispositions, and are 

 quarrelsome and always ready to fight. They will hold spite and call 

 names as surely as human beings. A dog's memory is remarkable. 

 He can be trained to do almost anything; to carry valuables, run ei- 

 rands and guard property, while his devotion to his master and his 

 fidelity make him worthy of the title of "Friend of man." Be good to 

 your dog and he will repay you. 



Don't be cruel in training him. Never put a spiked collar on him 

 nor step on his toes ; do not pinch his ears, or you will make him 

 sore; don't tie him to a tree and leave him. 



Under my system all this is useless, and a dog can be trained in 

 the parlor if you wish, or in the kennel with the other dogs. The 

 earlier you commence on a young dog the better, and the easier it will 

 be to train him.
