A Canine Member Of The Spca
[June 18, 1892.] If you think this little anecdote of canine friendliness worthy of the Spectator, will you insert it for me? Last week a sick dog took up its abode in the field behind our house, and after seeing the poor thing lying th...
A Canine Nurse
[May 18, 1895.] Being a frequent reader of anecdotes of the sagacity of animals in your paper, I think you may consider the following trait of character in a dog worthy of notice. Jack, a rough-haired fox-terrier of quiet disposition, b...
A Canine Sight-seer
[May 20, 1876.] As a subscriber to your journal, I have observed from time to time discussion on the "reasoning power of dogs." I will tell you what I observed to-day. In consequence of the Levee there was a great crowd in Pall Mall. I ...
A Cat-and-dog Friendship
[June 8, 1895.] The interesting letter, "A Canine Nurse," in the Spectator of May 18th, recalls to mind an equally curious event in cat and dog life which occurred some years since in a house where I was living, but with the additional ...

A Commercial Treaty Between A Dog And A Hen
[July 7, 1888.] Your dog-loving readers may be interested in the following instance of animal sagacity. Bob is a fine two-year-old mastiff, with head and face of massive strength, heightened by great mildness of expression. One day he w...

A Curious Friendship
[Feb. 6, 1875.] I have two dogs, two cats, and a kitten. Many years of experience have shown me, in the teeth of all proverbs, that cats and dogs, members of the same household, live together quite as amicably as human beings. Only, l...
A Dog And A Rabbit

A Dog And A Whip
[May 18, 1889.] You have lately published several dog stories. Allow me to send you another for publication should you think it worthy. It was told me to-day by a lady whom I cross-examined to get full details:--"Some twenty years back ...
A Dog And His Dinner
[Feb. 16, 1895.] I knew a dog in Ireland--a large retriever--who had been taught always to bring his own tin dish in his mouth, to be filled at the late dinner. For some reason his master wished to make a change, and to feed him twice a...
A Dog Nurse

A Dog Obeying A Summons
[Jan. 18, 1890.] The enclosed may interest you. I received it this morning. I have no doubt Dr. Barford, of Wokingham, would verify it, but I have not the pleasure of his acquaintance. The following is the story:-- "Dr. Barford's dog ...
A Dog On Long Sermons
[Aug. 4, 1888.] During a recent journey in Canada, I met with a striking instance of reason in a dog. I was staying at the Mohawk Indian Institution, Brantford, Ontario. The Rev. R. Ashton, superintendent of the school, is also incumben...
