DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Practical Sheep Husbandry: A Comprehensive Treatise of Practical Methods for Producing, Feeding and Fattening Sheep and Lambs for Market We are just what education and breeding have made us, whether that education has been false or true. Both of the following examples tend to show when and how some of our most noble animals were originally created; and what breeding and education will accomplish: One of the noblest animals which we possess is the Newfoundland dog, which was produced by crossing the Eskimo dog with a French Hound; likewise the English thoroughbred of today is the result of crossing an Arabian stallion with an ordinary English mare, although, of course, especially selected.
