"Whenever the dog is kept in an enclosed kennel . . . he will
not only degenerate physically, becoming stiff, sluggish and lazy,
but will also become mentally torpid, and lose all his sharpness
and vim."
"The gait of a good shepherd dog is so easy and gliding that
during an even trot, not a drop of water wold be spilled from a
full glass placed on his back."
"A good judge . . . must be free from the narrowness of mind
which confines its energies to the discovery of failings, or in
biased preferences in relation to physical beauty. . . and he must
not be influenced either by the ambition or greed of individuals,
nor by the only too often ill-directed whim of the market."
