00RANG AIREDALES 
Oorang Airedales are a true sporting strain and 
have no equal as water-dogs, retrievers and hunters 
of all kinds of game. They are trailers, tree-barkers 
and stayers. They will climb a tree or go to earth 
and fight anything from a rat to a bear. Their 
faithful and untiring watchfulness makes them the 
best of protectors for camp, home or estate. Their 
superior intelligence makes them the most desirable 
pals for ladies or gentlemen and loyal playmates for 
children. They are the ideal dogs for farm and 
ranch, being careful and efficient drivers of cattle, 
hogs and sheep. We have for sale at all times 
proven stock and farm dogs; trained hunters on lion, 
bear, wolf, bob-cat, coon, opossum, skunk, mink and 
rabbit; trained retrievers on ducks, geese and water- 
fowl; police and watch dogs: automobile dogs and 
companions; stud-dogs, brood -matrons and puppy 
stock from the bluest Airedale blood in America ; 
Fox-hounds, Coon-hounds and Big Game-hounds ; 
also dog foods, dog medicines and kennel supplies of 
all kinds. Illustrated and interesting booklet mailed

instantly and by motion or whistle of the 
mouth be hunted day in and day out. On 
woodcock the human voice does not play 
an important part as these birds are not 
easily flushed, but our young- dog- should 
be made to quarter and cover his territory 
very carefully as every little outlying cor- 
ner of a woodcock cover is a possible rest- 
ing place for one of these long-billed tim- 
ber doodles. 
I N teaching the dog to cover or quarter 
his ground first blow one short whistle 
to attract attention then make motion 
of the hand in direction you wish dog to 
go — turning and walking in that direc- 
tion yourself — should the dog attempt to 
come in walk toward him, at same time 
motioning him to go on. It will be found 
very satisfactory in many ways if the 
dog can be counted on to obey a motion 
of the hand and too much time cannot be 
spent on this very desirable bit of his edu- 
cation. Do not talk to the dog, caution- 
ing him to be “careful” at every sign of 
his making game. This will only result 
in a pottering dog and liable to make 
a false pointing performance, something 
that of all things is to be dreaded. Some 
one has said that “many a bird has been 
killed to a flush but never one over a 
false point” — so that we really should 
rather have our puppy get up too close 
and flush occasionally, as this he will 
overcome, but we have no use for the over 
cautious, false pointing trailer. 
When the puppy points, get up to him 
as quickly as possible, so that if he starts 
when the bird flushes you can stop him 
in his tracks — if necessary snap a cord 
in his collar and hold him. Do not let him 
go again until his excitement has some- 
what abated, as there may be other birds 
lying close in and we do not want him 
to flush or chase in any instance. 
Many trainers use a long trailing cord 
in breaking a puppy, so that at all times 
he is under corltrol and can be stopped by 
stepping on the cord or corrected by a 
jerk. This cord has its advantages and 
its disadvantages and we believe it is not 
necessary nor does it make a bold-going, 
snappy performer. Our system relies 
on the absolute obedience we exact 
from our pupil, and this we presume has 
been thoroughly taught in the lessons 
which have gone before his debut in the 
field. We have had a dog that would turn 
instantly at a short whistle, just as if he 
was on the end of a string, and when this 
can be done he can be made to change his 
course, quarter his ground and stop in 
his tracks at any time. 
T HERE are several little accomplish- 
ments which if thoroughly learned 
by the puppy will prove of value 
later on when the season opens. 
Do not allow the dog to hunt in circles* 
continually coming in to the gun. Do not 
allow the dog to run in the road ahead 
of you at any time. Either have him hunt, 
the cover at the roadside or come to heel. 
Never allow the dog to go over a fence 
or stone wall in advance of the gun. 
Never allow the dog to chase cripples. 
Never fail to punish for shot or wing 
breaking, and finally never allow any one 
to hunt with or give commands to the 
dog but yourself.
