YOUR BIRD DOG 
is at this moment just as essential to you 
as is your gun. 
It is safe to say your gun is cleaned 
up, gone over, oiled and in perfect shape 
for the field right now. 
How about your dog? 
Is his coat lustrous, his eye bright, his 
energy irrepressible? 
Has he been given such exercise, 
handling and conditioning, within the 
last month, so that he is ready to-day 
for a hard, all-day hunt? 
Your dog may look pretty good and be 
able to work well, and hard, for a day or 
two, and then, at the end of a week, be 
all in, and probably this will happen just 
at the time you need him most. 
Once more we prescribe an ounce of 
prevention. If you see any signs of an 
ailment, write the symptoms to us and 
they will be turned over to the dog ex¬ 
perts in this department for prescription. 
They will tell you what is the trouble, 
how to remedy it, and where to get re¬ 
liable medicines should dosing be neces¬ 
sary. Remember one fact. 
More dogs are killed by injudicious 
doctoring than by disease. 
Very often a dose of castor oil, or a 
vermifuge, will be sufficient to put in 
proper shape an apparently very sick 
animal. 
If you intend building a kennel, let 
our breeders of great experience give you 
some pointers on the subject. 
If your bitch has a litter, let us tell 
you some facts that may enable you to 
bring up every one of the pups and make 
firm, rugged youngters of them. 
If you are going to buy a dog let us 
recommend reliable breeders. There are 
hundreds of irresponsible men advertis¬ 
ing hunting dogs for sale who are not to 
be depended upon. 
We know the good and the bad, and 
can save you money and annoyance. 
If you have about made up your mind 
to purchase a shooting dog, send us his 
points and pedigree. We will tell you 
whether or not he is all that is claimed 
for him. 
In other words, let our experts do for 
you what they have for years been doing 
for hundreds of readers of this paper— 
Show you how to get the best and 
keep the best in the best way. 
This service is absolutely free and 
without obligation to readers of Forest 
and Stream.
