What Every Good Dog
Should Know

by Sonia Lee

from Hollywood Magazine,

August 1937

Who wears the leash in your home? Gypsy has a triumphant look, but it's no joke to Judy
who knows that a dog without manners can upset a household.

Above, Judy and Max Weatherwax, trainer at Charles Ruggles Kennels are in conference with the problem of teaching Gypsy how to sit down when told.

It's no fun taking your
pooch for a walk if he
stumbles all over your
feet. Here is the first
position in teaching
him to heel properly.

It takes persistence and understanding, but Gypsy is getting the idea of helping to carry small packages.
