Excerpt from Dogs as Home Companions: A Book for All Dog Lovers
There are still many more who feel that they would like a dog for home and children if one could be kept in the city in a satisfactory manner. It is true that the dweller in flats could not have a St. Bernard or a Great Dane tagging about with him, but in many a flat small dogs are harbored and live their lives in the companion ship of their human friends as hap pily, if not more so, than those dogs which live in kennels.
I have no brief for the hot - house dog, however, or those that are not living at least part of the time in the open, if it is necessary to give him the entire run of the house, the best chairs to lounge upon day and night, or perchance, the center of a.nice, clean counterpane in the best bed room. That is not my idea of keeping a dog, but nevertheless there is no reason why any person should live a dogless life simply because his home is in the city.
