To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Indeed, until the dog sees game killed, he seldom loses the fear which has produced it. It is there- fore frequently useless to continue the breaking, in the spring, although such a dog sometimes becomes very useful by careful management in the shooting season. Generally speaking, it is occasioned by undue severity, either applied for chasing cats or IDOultry, or for chasing game when first hunted. The former kind of castigation, should be cautiously applied, as the puppy is very apt to associa...te the punishment given for the chasing of game with that due to the destruction of poultry or cats ; and as he has been compelled to leave the latter by the use of the whip, and has been afterwards kept " at heel," so he thinks he must do so now, and in fear he comes there, and consequently " blinks his birds." This defect is only to be remedied by instilling C(mfidence, and by avoiding punishment; but it is often one which gives great trouble before it is got over. It is not so bad as the obstinately refusing to work at all, but is only next to it.
