Excerpt from The Dog-Fancier's Guide: Plain Instructions for Breeding and Managing the Several Varieties of Field, Sporting, and Fancy Dogs, With the Most Approved Method of Distinguishing and Treating the Various Diseases to Which They Are Subject In a wild state, dogs live in hordes, and seek their prey like other untamed animals, except that they always hunt in packs, and thus run down their prey; but brought into connexion with human society, the very nature of the dog seems changed, he forfeits his liberty without regret, and seems most happy when belonging to a master to whom he can be faithful as a friend, servant, or companion. In domestication, his ambition seems to be, the desire to please; to offer his force, his courage, and all his useful talents, at the service of his master, seems to give him peculiar gratification; he waits his orders, to which he pays implicit obedience: he consults his looks, and a single glance is sufficient to put him in motion: he is faithful and constant, friendly with out interest, and grateful for the slightest favours more mindful of benefits received than injuries offered, he is not driven off by unkindness: he still continues submissive; and even licks the hand just lifted to strike him, and disarms resentment by sub missive perseverence.
