Yis, the boy has acted with jedgment and is sartinly comin' along like a buck in full jump. I guess I'd better let him know where I be." "Hillow there, boy! Hi, hi, pups! Here I be on the p'int of the rock, as fresh as a buck arter a mornin' drink.
Now, continued the Baron, growing huskier as he talked louder: 'Short and ringing, my devil's pups: Werner and his Bride! and may she soon give you a young baron to keep you in better order than I can, as, if she does her duty, she will. The Baron stood up, and lifted his huge arm to lead the toast. 'Werner and his Bride! Not a voice followed him.
They taught the pups tricks, they tamed a family of prairie-dogs, they had a plan for painting the windmill. By the end of a week Stanwood was in such good humor, that he made a marked concession. One of the glowing, glimmering sunsets they both delighted in was going on, beautifying the prairie as warmly as the sky.
Some medicine and a spoon stood by the watch. There was no light in the room save that which Craney carried; the one window was blanketed; sufficient air came through the loopholes, and the window sash was down against the hound pups that would otherwise have had free entrance.
The artist had a sympathetic voice and spoke in tones of interest, and the lad answered frankly: "Mother that is, my real mother she died when I were a little kid, and Juno here, she had pups at the time not that one, she's Flora, three years old she be and they used to pretend she suckled me. It bain't likely, be it?" he asked, as if after all he was not quite sure about it himself.
With us, however, it did not succeed. The pups were lank and weedy and not nearly so capable as the ordinary Straits breed. The real Labrador dog is a very slightly modified wolf. A good specimen stands two feet six inches, or even two feet eight inches high at the shoulder, measures over six feet six inches from the tip of the nose to the tip of the tail, and will scale a hundred pounds.
The best way to give this medicine is to mix it with a small piece of butter and spread this ointment on a piece of cheese, which will be eagerly gobbled up, as all hounds appear to like cheese. The pups should have plenty of clean dry straw for their bedding, and boards are far safer and more comfortable for them to lie on than bricks, which are always more or less cold and damp.
Worm-powders were to have been provided by the expert Canadian dog-driver I had engaged before sailing for the south, and when this man did not join the Expedition the matter was overlooked. We had fifty-four dogs and eight pups early in April, but several were ailing, and the number of mature dogs was reduced to fifty by the end of the month.
He gave the carcass a poke with his boot-toe and glanced up the hill toward the rocks. "Maybe you were playing lookout for the bunch," he said, "and then again, maybe you ain't hooked up with a family; though from the looks, you ain't weaned your pups yet till just now." Leaving the wolf where she lay, he climbed to the rocks where he had first seen her.
When he had returned to the front hall he coaxed the boys, "Say, if any of you fellows are thirsty, there's some dandy ginger ale." "Oh! Thanks!" they condescended. He sought his wife, in the pantry, and exploded, "I'd like to go in there and throw some of those young pups out of the house! They talk down to me like I was the butler! I'd like to "
