DOGS IN HARNESS

 

DOGS IN HARNESS - True Story

EVERYboy knows, that away in the regions of icy North the Esquimaux  use their sagacious dogs  to draw the sledges. But theirs is not  the only part of the world where dogs are put into harness.
Dog-carts are common enough in the Low- Countries, where the peasants drive into town their canine teams, drawing a cart laden with produce. Dogs of all kinds are used for this purpose, but many of them are mastiffs of large size. Some years ago dog-carts were not uncommon in our own country, but they were made illegal by Parliament.

 If the English peasant would treat his dogs as kindly as the Dutch and Belgians do, we should have no need to brand as cruel and brutal the custom of putting dogs in harness.
