His writings remind me of one ...Stonehenge-- haha!<br /><br />His writings remind me of one of those early naturalists describing animals from taxidermied specimens.<br /><br /><br />His best known work is "The dog, in health and disease." And it's full of interesting stories that probably aren't true. I can send you a PDF of it, or you can find the full text of it easily on google.<br /> <br />He claims that a cross between a terrier and beagle makes a good retriever, something I highly doubt, for the terrier will introduce hard mouth into the strain. (I know Jack Russell that retrieves like a pro, but he plucks all of his tennis balls and stuffed toys. I guarantee you he'd do the same with a bird.) I can't imagine turning a beagle into a retriever.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
