Dogs and All about Them

There
is
nothing
to
surpass
the
beauty
of
the
Beagle
either
to
see
him
on
the
flags
of
his
kennel
or
in
unravelling
a
difficulty
on
the
line
of
a
dodging
hare.
In
neatness
he
is
really
the
little
model
of
a
Foxhound.
He
is,
of
course,
finer,
but
with
the
length
of
neck
so
perfect
in
the
bigger
hound,
the
little
shoulders
of
the
same
pattern,
and
the
typical
quarters
and
second
thighs.
Then
how
quick
he
is
in
his
casts!
and
when
he
is
fairly
on
a
line,
of
course
he
sticks
to
it,
as
the
saying
is,
"like
a
beagle."
Beagles
have
been
carefully
preserved
for
a
great
many
years,
and
in
some
cases
they
have
been
in
families
for
almost
centuries.
In
the
hereditary
hunting
establishments
they
have
been
frequently
found,
as
the
medium
of
amusement
and
instruction
in
hunting
for
the
juvenile
members
of
the
house;
and
there
can
be
nothing
more
likely
to
instil
the
right
principles
of
venery
into
the
youthful
mind
than
to
follow
all
the
ways
of
these
little
hounds.
