DRAUGHT DOG 



This is more or less of a nondescript variety, but he is worthy of a place in the 

 sun by reason of the inestimable service he renders to his master or misttess. Daily 

 he may be seen in Belgium and Holland drawing the carts purveying milk, butter, 

 vegetables and other similar household necessities. He varies in height from about 

 24 in. to 32 in. and weighs around 100 Ibs. Fawns and brindles are the most common 

 colors. In general appearance he is a cobbily-built strong dog capable of great endur- 

 ance. Naturally he must be strongly 'made in back and loins, well boned in legs and 

 with feet well padded. The tail is generally docked to about three inches. Chapters 

 dealing with other purposes to which dogs are put will be found in other parts of 

 this work.
