DOGS USED IN SPORT 



2 3 



Sporting Dogs only, great numbers of them being kept 

 in different parts of the country, and hunted as packs, 

 most of their followers being on foot, and often accom- 

 panied by some of the sportswomen of their districts, 

 as their pace is not so impetuous as that of their larger 

 brethren. Frequently they call forth a considerable fol- 

 lowing in the parts they travel over, and many cricket- 

 ers and others ("Dr. W. G." amongst others), who 

 desire to keep " in condition " during the " off sea- 

 son," habitually attend the nearest meets of Beagles 

 as an agreeable form of " training."
