"AMERICAN KENNEL REGISTER." 



T^HOBE who wish to register their dogs in the next number 

 of the American Kcmu-I Reuidcr should forward them at 

 once and not wait until the last moment. Wo also wish to 

 impress upon the minds of those who send its entries that all 

 names should bo written plainly, and all errors in pedigrees 

 eliminated, as in order to make, the Rerjistcr valuable it, must 

 be. correct, and that the proper time to correct mistakes is 

 before their publication. 



THE POINTER JOSH.— Greenville, Mich., June Uk-At 

 the time I wrote yon about my pointer dog Josh, who had 



i'ust had a seven, spasm or fit, 1 supposed it was poison, but as 

 ,0 has had a half dozen since, am satisfied was mistaken. 

 After the first tit I kept him as quiet as possible. On the 

 evening of the fourth day he had another exactly like first, 

 six hours later another, and the next morning -oh 

 During the day following he looked as bright" and seemed to 

 feelas well as ever, though perceptibly weaker. On in.pdry 

 Ifouudhehad the day previous (i. .'.. the day he had the 

 second fit) visited one of my camps as the ineii were eating 

 dinner, and had eaten enormously, forty or fifty men each 

 contributing their mite to gratify his appetite, by throwing 

 him bits of meat (he would eat notning else). Even this was 

 followed by a liberal feed from the cook. I now took htm 

 home and left him, fearing this might fie repeated. Four 

 nights later he had another lit. The evening previous he was 

 seen hanging about a meat market, for at least two hours, 

 though I cannot learn that he was fed there. Four days, later 

 he was severely bitten by another dog, making a long, deep 

 gash in the bottom of his foot, at least two inches long. That 

 same night he had another fit followed by still another in the 

 morning, making a total of seven in all since, he was first at- 

 tacked. My wife thinks they are growing less severe. After 

 coming out of them, he usually sleeps an hour or two, after 

 which he is as bright a3 ever. ' The tits last from one to five 

 minutes. He is very nervous and seems to dread being left 

 alone, especially immediately after coming out of a tit. One 

 word with regard to treatment thus far: After first (it lard, 

 under impression it was poison. After second mild physic, 

 (sennaleaves tea) and a few drops of turpentine under impres- 

 sion it was worms. Examined his stool after this, found no 

 evidence of worms, but a number of sharp ragged pieces 

 of bone as he had swallowed them, also numerous 

 blades of grass, etc. The third and fourth fit fol- 

 lowed quickly after second. After the fifth fit gave two 

 injections of sulph. aether and laudanum, as per Alayhew for 

 fits, on page 398 (I think) of "Dinks Mayhew and Hutohinson 

 on the Dog." As stool next morning showed trace of hlood 

 and evidence of dysentery, gave preparation of opium and 

 digestine. Followed since by digestine and a pill of asafcetida 

 at each meal. The stool at this time appears healthy and all 

 right. Am in hopes that he would not have had last two fits 

 if ho had not been bitten so severely, but can't tell. The foot 

 is very sore and most difficult to bandage. Is it as well to 

 leave "it bare and let him lick It?— R. F. 8, [The communica- 

 tion of our correspondent was published last week. It, would 

 have appeared before, but as we supposed that the case was 

 one of poisoning, requiring no immediate reply as the danger 

 was past, we forwarded the letter to one of our best authori- 

 ties upon canine therapeutics for his opinion, which agreed 

 with ours. The recurrence of the convulsions of course pre- 

 cludes the idea of poison, and we must look for some other 

 disturbing cause. The symptoms described appear to point 

 to the stomach as the seat of the trouble. Over-feeding, es- 

 pecially a meat diet, exercise oxt a fidl stomach, or a suppres- 

 sion of the natural secretions arc a predisposing cause of con- 

 vulsions. Hill, in his excellent work upon the management 

 and diseases of the dog, says: "Cold water is certainly the 

 best ready-at-hand application; this may be dashed freely in 

 the face, or, what is better, a tap turned on the animal's head. 

 When coma succeeds the attack, ammonia should be applied 

 to the nostrils, and the gums rubbed with brandy. The back 

 of the head may also, m protracted eases, be stimulated with 

 mustard or turpentine embrocation." The removal of the 

 cause of irritation is the first thing to be attended to. "We 

 mid advise a light diet for awhile, consisting of milk and 

 .. all-cooked rice or oatmeal, with vegetables, but no meat. 

 He should also be kept quiet, especially alter eating. The. cut 

 upon his foot will probably soon heal if left alone. Should it 

 not do so, take, a piece of an old boot-leg, large enough to tie 

 round the ankle, and, after washing out the wound, cover it 

 with common pitch and tie on the boot.]

S. R. B.— Cape Clirardoau. Mo.— Let the bitch so by one season 

 without breeding and the trouble may disappear, although it is 

 doubtful. 



H. E. W., Da Crosse, Wis.— Your dog has mange. Wash him 

 thoroughly, using soft soap, and apply sulphurous acid diluted with 

 three parts water, and let, it dry on. Repeat in two days. 



G. \V., Princeton. 111.— Groom your dop regularly every day for two 

 or three weeks, usiiiK a stiff brush. A wire brush, if you nave one- 

 Write us again in two weeks, giving a particular description of ap- 

 pearance of skin and general condition. 



L. F. P., Baiubridge, Ga.— Your description of the sore is so vague 

 that it is impossible for us to prescribe. The milk should be drawn, 

 and the natural way is the best. We could not say whether il will 

 harm the puppy or not without knowing its nature. Write fully, ex- 

 plaining the case. 



S. N. K., Lancaster. N. IL— Your puppy is probably coming down 

 with distemper, for « hicl, there is no specific. „s there is a great va- 

 riety of forms which i.neiiisease assumes. I1.H..1 feed and fresh air is

 remove the cause. If his bowel:-, are not open give him ,,, small pill- 

 one or two grains-of aloes at night. Feed no meat, and be careful 

 not to overload his stomach. 



C. B. M„ WUkesbarre. Pa.— Your dog has chorea, which is a fre- 

 quent sequence of distemper. Old dogs, or those who have severe 

 attacks, seldom recover. Young ,i,,g s fre.iaeaily recover. Give one- 

 quarter grain of nus vomica extract tbr< e times ai.o, lor two weeks. 

 Feed wholesome food and give plenty of exercise. A tablespoonful 

 of cod-liver oil twice a day would perhaps benefit him. 



Mc, Eagle Rock, Pa.— 1. Have setter dog one year old. Yery thin. 

 Rough incoat. No appetite, some days eating nothing. Vomiting 

 and diarrhea part, of the time. Never had any care till 1 got him six 

 weeks ago. what ails him. and what should I do for him; S. Would 

 it do to breed a blue belton English setter hitch to a red Irish dog; or 

 whatwould be the objection to such a cross? Ans. 1. It is impos- 

 sible from your description to say what is the matter. He may have 

 distemper or worms. We can only recommend good wholesome 

 food, a dry kennel and regular exercise according to !,i„ -trenetii. 

 Keep his bowels in goo,! order, and grobjn hue regularrv Bvery day. 

 2. Yes, if you care nothing for purity of breed, and both ate good 

 field performers.
