Bogs for Private Shooting. 



Editor Forest and Stream: 



I mean the same class of dogs which have been most un- 

 fortunately and untruly referred to as "plug" dogs. The 

 term was first applied by a distinguished field trial man in 

 the heat of a personal controversy about individual dogs and 

 would show, if accepted literally, a want of truth and can- 

 dor which I feel sure that the originator is incapable of. The 

 dog for private shooting not only cannot be belittled, but 

 cannot be overrated; and it is only for his improvement that 

 field trials are encouraged. The invidious distinction is a 

 mistake. It would be as just to call a horse a "plug" be- 

 cause his trotting was under a 2.10 gait, though as a fact the 

 useful and desirable road horse is the more desiralile animal 

 and it is entirely for his sake that the educated trotter is use- 

 ful. Of course this line of statement is true of the breeding 

 and running of the racehorse, and is its only reason or excuse. 



Entertaining these views as to the true and valuable shoot- 

 inc dog, I was very much interested in a statement in your 

 last week's paper to the effect that the Eastern Field Trial 

 Club contemplated olfering a prize for private shooting dogs 

 to be handled by their owners. It will be necessary of course 

 to hem this stake in with restrictions to define the term 

 "private shooting dogs" or whatever term may be adopted. 

 It should exclude all dogs that have been ever run or en- 

 tered in field trials, and also the employment of professional 

 handlers. Of course I am not elaborating details, which 

 must be the work of the club. I think the stake would be a 

 very popular one. 



There is now a feeling among owners of, say, one or two 

 dogs, that they have no chance against large kennels, assisted 

 by professional handlers, and judged by rules and standards 

 unfitted for private shooting dogs. That the field trials 

 show the capabilities of dogs as races do those of the 

 horse, but that after all the desirable dog for use is still the 

 dog our fathers shot over and for whose sake trials were in- 

 stituted. 



Of course the rules of judgment of merit should be changed 

 for shooting dogs. Moderate but steady range, bird sense or 

 knowledge of the ways and habits of the game, perfect 

 breaking and obedience, and retrieving might well be .substv 

 tuted for the speed and wide ranging now justly required in 

 our field trials, while the generous rivalry of the owner- , 

 sportsmen managing their own dogs wiU add very much to 

 the pleasure of field trial meetings. Let us all indorse the 

 scheme and make it the favorite stake. The field trial men 

 I have seen are xanauimoxas in its favor. It will conduce to- 

 ward good judgment in all the stakes and goodfellowship. I 

 Let the club offer generous stakes, good cheer aud welcome, 

 and many pleasant times in the future are before us. Nil.

American Spaniel Club Meeting. 



A MEETING of the above club was held Nov. 24 at 6.3 Broad-' 

 way, New York citv. Present: Messrs. A. C. Wilmerding in 

 the chair, E. M. Oldham, R. P. Keasbey, Albert E. Foster. 



Minutes of last meeting read and approved. Voted that

 be discharged. 



Moved and seconded that the communication from Mr. H 

 C. Glover be answered by the secretary to the effect that 

 while the Spaniel Club is in accord with the proposition sub- 

 mitted by him, yet as they do not give dog shows, they hardly 

 think they are in a position to sign the same. 



Voted that the Bell cup be offered at the coming Saratoga 

 show, provided one of the club's classification be adopted. ' 



It was then voted that Mr. Foster having won the Field 

 Spaniel cup the required number of times, it is now hereby 

 officially awarded to him, aud the secretary be ordered to rei 

 turn his bond for the same and this fact be duly published. 



On motion the pre.sident appointed the following committer 

 to obtain .specials for the coming New York show: A. C 

 Wilmerding, R. P. Keasbey and A. E. Foster. Meeting ad^ 

 jourued.
