Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Absence of European specialization and training of the breeds has deprived the Chinese and Japanese of enjoyment of those particular canine qualities which have for centuries given much of the zest of life to the sportsman in Europe and, more over, provide no small interest to the soldier, fowler, trainer, shepherd, and breeder. From certain State papers it has been possible to show that from very early periods the dog has been used extensively by European and Eastern monarchs as State presents. The emperors and kings of the past prided themselves on their success in adapting dogs to the varied uses of the chase, and this success, which fell in no small measure to British trainers, was utilized on many occasions for the promoting of friendly intercourse with foreign countries.
