. Our domestic animals, their habits, intelligence and usefulness; tr. from the French of Gos. De Voogt, by Katharine P. Wormeley;. Domestic animals. THE DOG 41 But these houses, even if adorned with a few coatings of paint, are not solid in the long run, and cannot be recommended for high-bred dogs. A good kennel, which can be bought cheaper (in the sense of being solid) than if made by the ablest carpenter, has its opening at the side. It should be planned thus : ]5y i^lacing a partition A, as a wind screen, the dog can lie in space /> sheltered from drafts. The space should be large enough to allow of his lying at his ease behind the screen. In summer the partition can be remoxecl, and if the dog is still hot, he will know enough to come out of the kennel to get air. The floor may be of planks, but it must be possible to clean it with wate and disinfectants. Some kennels are detached from the ground or turn back on hinges, thereby contribut much to cleanliness, which is so portant, especially for young do£ If it is desired to prevent the d eases of dogs, disinfectants should be used every week in all ken- nels, but never to the extent of leaving the floor damp.
