FOR THE FIELD AND FIELD TRIALS. 2$ 



forts are marked by inconsiderate haste. It is easily 

 perceived that if the trainer does not endeavor to 

 understand the nature and capacity of his pupil, his 

 efforts to teach will be far from good. 



Let the amateur consider that the dog's education 

 is properly a matter of weeks and months instead of 

 a matter of a few lessons carefully given or many 

 lessons forcefully given ; that the trainer's haste does 

 not in the least add to the dog's ability or inclination 

 to learn, and that a puppy is an undeveloped creature 

 which needs age for the proper development of its 

 reasoning powers.
