Beschreibung
The oldest working nose in Britain, and the fiercest arguments about what to do with it. The Bloodhound - A Complete Anthology of the Dog is the fullest gathering in this series, drawing on the rare kennel literature of 1897 to 1935, among them H. W. Huntington's My Dog and I (1897), Arthur Craven's Dogs of the World (1931) and Walter Hutchinson's Hutchinson's Dog Encyclopaedia (1935). The hound described here had been trailing quarry in these islands since the medieval period, and the writers of the day were busy arguing about whether it could - or should - be used to track criminals. Points, that unmatched nose, temperament, the great kennels and the pedigrees of the celebrated hounds are all set out, with the original photographs reproduced throughout. This edition features:The fullest breed gathering in the series, from the kennel literature of 1897 to 1935 The trailing hound in its working prime, and the debate over its use in police work Points, nose and temperament, with the pedigrees of the celebrated hounds The original photographs of the leading dogs of the era, reproduced throughout
