Buying An Airedale. 
In picking out a puppy select the bright little 
chap to whom you are naturally attracted—I 
am advising the “dog owner” who knows the 
breed well enough not to be interested in any 
litter not of orthodox breeding. Only in case 
of doubt need you pay attention to show points. 
If it comes to a question of that pick the dark 
eye, small ear, long head, short back, straight 
legs. Do not worry about size or color or 
coat, nor must a novice expect to be able to 
“pick the winner” of a litter. Go to a reputable 
breeder and pay as much as you can afford. 
You can take his advice, for all dog breeders 
are not crooks and grafters, but like any other 
kind of a business transaction, knowledge is very 
valuable to the purchaser. 
May I plead the case of the bitch as a com¬ 
panion? Nine out of ten want a dog, but a 
bitch has many advantages. She is usually 
more clever, a great deal more affectionate and 
faithful, much less given to roaming from home, 
and should one ever want to raise some pup¬ 
pies she may prove a valuable investment. 
The kennel owner, turning now to him, will, 
I take it for granted, read all he can lay his 
hands on that treats of the Airedale, go to 
shows, visit kennels, and talk, think, and dream 
Airedale. If he is to have a small kennel I ad¬ 
vise his buying one or two good young bitches 
Puppies are a chance and old bitches, however 
famous, are poor breeding stock. Buy young 
winning bitches, proved mothers and of de¬ 
sirable blood lines and you will have the best 
possible start along the road of kennel success. 
It is as rocky a thoroughfare as the proverbial 
one to Dublin, full of all sorts of disappoint¬ 
ments and may be even losses, but its pleasures 
and its gains are sure to come to the man who 
follows it in the right spirit. 
The large kennel owner is either going into 
it for pleasure, where he will have a check book 
to help him, or for a business. In the former 
case he will probably leave much on the 
shoulders of his kennel manager, and I am writ¬ 
ing on Airedales, not the servant problem. _ If 
he is going to make a business of raising Aire¬ 
dales that is his business, not the author’s. 
To all Airedale buyers let me again say that 
it pays to know all you can about the breed and 
to buy the best you can afford. The “biggest 
and best terrier” has been tried by so many 
different people in all parts of the world and 
has won such unanimous praise that his ad¬ 
mirers can recommend him to anyone, any¬ 
where for anything.—From The Airedale, by 
William Haynes, Outing Pub. Co. 
Pittsburgh Kisses Dogs. 
“Dog mouth,” a disease discovered by Paris 
physicians and caused by kissing pet poodles, is 
becoming prevalent in Pittsburgh. 
The above clipping is from one of the Pitts¬ 
burgh papers. If the report is true, there is 
only one answer. The dog must have been a 
spitz, and the lady that swapped soul kisses 
with it deserves black tongue and anything else 
a dog is likely to pick up in its “dainty” mouth 
from the gutter and barn yard. 
Kennel. 
Man and Dog 
A bird dog seldom fills the bill as watch 
dog. You can't make a child’s nurse of a 
Spitz dog. You don’t run rabbits with a 
mastiff. You wouldn’t drive sheep with a 
toy Pomeranian, nor can you hunt quail 
with a fox-terrier. Yet, every one of these 
animals is invaluable for a specific purpose, 
and it’s our idea to tell you just what dog 
you need, provided you will tell for what 
you want to employ it. And, we will tell 
you where to buy it. 
There are hundreds of “Dog exchanges” 
that are exactly what the name implies— 
they take any kind of a dog and exchange 
it for your money. They don’t breed, they 
buy low and sell high. There are many un¬ 
reliable dog breeders. They promise things 
they can’t deliver. We want to keep 
Forest and Stream readers in the chan¬ 
nel with the honest, reliable breeder, and 
will gladly do so if you will ask our advice.
