Show "Dog Trot" a Misnomer. ' Dogs have o variety of gaits," said the boss of tho kennels, "therefore I can t understand why it Is that people peo-ple 'who descrlbo a certain style of locomotion alwajs call It a dog trot. Judging hi the universality of that exptesslon a body would think that a dog never moves any other way than on a trot Hut ho does. All tho gaits belonging to other four footed animals are n!to his lie runs, ho lopes, he oven racks and pnees, so when a perton In a hurry falls Into a peculiar kind of canter, thero would bo Just as much sense in speaking of his gait as a dog run or a dog gallop, gal-lop, once In a whllo, as always to call it a ilog trot " |
