DOG TRANSPORTATION. 



TNresponse to the article in our issue of Ang. IS, upon this sub- 

 ject, we have received a vast amount of correspondence — so 

 much that it is impossible to give any considerable portion nf it to 

 oar readers. That the matter in of great importance, as well as 

 m a very unsatisfactory condition, these letters abundantly attest. 

 We have received many plans and sketches or a crate for the rail- 

 road transportation of dogs. Some of them are admirable, but, 

 as Mr, W. F. Steele -very pertinently remarks, " Owing to the lia- 

 bility of a public urate to spread infections diseases, I would uot 

 use l.licin." This is a very serious objection, so serious that wo 

 fear it is impossible to overcome it. Many of the promiuent rail- 

 roads express a. willingness to furnish the crates and try the ex- 

 periment, but unless crates can be mado that shall be entirely free 

 from this danger we do not think it advisable. 



The only feasible plan that we can suggest iB for every one to 

 furnish his own crate. This, of course, in many instances would 

 be impracticable, especially when npon au ordinary shooting trip, 

 but for any long distance it should he done, as dogs in a baggage 

 car— unless protected by a crate— are very liable to injury from 

 falling trunks or by being trodden upon by careless persons. 



We do not receive so many complaints as formerly, although 

 they are yet far too frequent, of the rapacity and churlishness of 

 the baggage-master. That the strictures Upon their conduct in 

 the sporting press has much to do with their reform we are well 

 convinced, for no matt or how careless they may be of our criti- 

 cism, they well know that sportsmen will uot tolerate auvthing of 

 cruelty nor carelessness in those to whom they confide the care of 

 their dogs, and that a public exposure of any act of negligence 

 or extortion that they may be guilty of will surely briug a merited 

 retribution in the loss of the patronage that pays them so well : 

 for sportsmen will not, if they can possibly avoid it, travel over 

 roads whose employees are allowed not only to extort from 

 them a price that is far iu excess of the value of the service 

 rendered, but to greet with iusult and profanity any attempt 

 to securo proper care for their pets. That the managers 

 of our railroads are responsible for this state of affaire 

 doeB not always follow, for we have ever found that a swift remedy 

 has at once been applied when the matter has been properly 

 brought before them. One or two instances have proved ex- 

 ceptions, notably iu one instance that occurred, we blush to say, 

 upon the hue of one of our largest corporations. We were not 

 only charged an exorbitant price for the transportion of our dog, 

 but tho brutal baggage-raeatei wantonly kicked him with his 

 heavy boots, laming him severely. The loss of the money we 

 should not have mentioned, but tho maltreatment we could uot 

 stand. We made complaint to the conductor requesting bun — as 

 we had not time— to report the affair to headquarters. He de- 

 nounced tho cruelty bnt offered in defense of the extortion the 

 very singular plea that the railroad did not pay the baggage- 

 master much of a salary, and that he was expected to make 

 this up out of his pei yuisn es from the patrons of the road, who 

 were so unlucky as to fall into his c!utche< through having a dog 

 or other extra baggage to transport over the road. As we hare 

 somewhere read, "comment is uuneccesary hero." We have not. 

 patronized this rnad since, as there arc competing linos; but we 

 understand that ihe same arrangements regarding the salary of 

 the baggage-master are yet in vogue although— thanks to the ap- 

 peals of sportsmen for the kind treatment of their dumb friends 

 — the employees are reasonably careful of the animals placed in 

 their charge. Railroad officials are much like other men of busi- 

 ness, and only need to be informed of any abuse of that kind to 

 at once institute reform. Of course the matter should be placed 

 before them iu the proper manner, and perhaps, in some in- 

 stances, persistently urged ; and to Una end wu would couusel all 

 sportsmen to unite in an appeal to the managers of the lin^s of 

 raiiroadB patronized by them for a reasonable tariff of rates and 

 for the bestowal of that care upon our dumb companions that 

 their love aud faithful service to us entitles them to, and their 

 pecuniary value demands. 



DOG DEALING PRTNCIPLK8. 



Editor Forest and Stream ; 



What should au honest man do when he gets swindled in buying 

 a dogV 



The »ame as any honest man Would do with a bad bill or a base 

 coin— destroy it at once, and not pass it to some unsuspecting per- 

 BOU, who would, po baits innocently, pass it again, Until it was 

 detected in the hands of some oue who is less able to lose it than 

 your-elf. Aud the same should be done with a worthless dog. I 

 "have, owned enough good dogs to know what a good dog is. but it 

 has been my misfortune to own a number of wurthleaa dog«. 

 Which I paid a pretty good price for. Some one might say that 

 after being swindled once I should be careful the next time ; but 

 the letters were so nice, aud the dogs were such good dot,s, some 

 were from dog dealers, but some from other meu, busiuc 

 the envelopes bore the stamp of the firm of which they wore 

 members— gentlemen, uot dog traders, told for no fault, but 

 they had more dogs thau they could keep. I have a letter 

 before mo now from a man whom i believe to bo honest, but 

 I have registered a solemn oath never to buy another dog 

 without a chauce to first t'jr him. Others might say that 

 perhaps I did not know how to handle a dog, or perhaps 

 the dog did not have time to get acquainted with me. But 

 this was not the case. I took them out aud tried them, in the 

 preseuce of men who are the owners of good dogs and are judges 

 of dogs, aud, alter keeping them marly a year, waiting for the 

 hunting season to otimmenc, have pronounced them not worth a 

 duse of Ilea poison. So I took them out to mv dog buryiug- 

 grou id aud blew out their brains, without giving them a particle 

 of pain— for the poor fellows were all good-natured, the only good 

 quality they bad— shouldered my spade and gun and walked home, 

 a better if uot a wiser man. 



I saw iu a late number of the Foiiest and Stufaji a dog adver- 

 tised for sale, aud the owner had the nuuliuess to say the dog was 

 gun-shy. Iestend my hand to him, and also to the man down 

 East who advertised poor Tip for three cents, instead of trying to 

 make good his loss by lying abont bis dog. 



I urn now about to offer quite a large reward to any one who will 

 swindle me in selling me a dog, or sell me a dog before giving me 

 a chance to trv him. Faiblv Uon kst.
