...after being quite dead-heart stopped, breath stopped, eyes glazed-for four minutes on Friday, April 13, Dog No. 3 had been brought back to live day after day. This apparent miracle had been worked by means of a rocking board and injections of oxygen-saturated saline solution, liver extract, canine blood, adrenalin, gum-arabic...

The tight white coat of the wire-haired fox terrier Flornell Spicy Bit of Halleston was hound-marked with tan; the silky white of the pointer Benson of Crombie marked with liver. Snowflake, the Old English sheepdog, looked like a fresh snow drift blanketed with fine blue-grey ash. Only the Pekingese Wu Foo of Kingswere showed no white in its tawny-red fluff. The final judging lasted 20 minutes. Dr. Jarrett watched the six prize-winners as they circled the ring...
