dog
(devil) | DOG, n. A kind of additional or subsidiary Deity designed to catch
the overflow and surplus of the world's worship. This Divine Being in
some of his smaller and silkier incarnations takes, in the affection
of Woman, the place to which there is no human male aspirant. The Dog
is a survival -- an anachronism. He toils not, neither does he spin,
yet Solomon in all his glory never lay upon a door-mat all day long,
sun-soaked and fly-fed and fat, while his master worked for the means
wherewith to purchase the idle wag of the Solomonic tail, seasoned
with a look of tolerant recognition.

DOG
(bouvier) | DOG. A well known domestic animal. In almost all languages this word is, a
term or name of contumely or reproach. See 3 Bulst. 226; 2 Mod. 260; 1 Leo.
148; and the title action on the case for defamation in the Digests;
Minsheu's Dictionary.
2. A dog is said at common law to have no intrinsic value, and he
cannot therefore be the subject of larceny. 4 Bl. Com. 236; 8 Serg. & Rawle,
571. But the owner has such property in him, that he may maintain trespass
for an injury to his dog; "for a man may have property in some things which
are of so base nature that no felony can be committed of them, as of a
bloodhound or mastiff." 12 H. VIII. 3; 18 H. VIII. 2; 7 Co. 18 a; Com. Dig.
Biens, F; 2 Bl. Com. 397; Bac. Ab. Trover, D; F. N. B. 86; Bro. Trespass,
pl. 407 Hob. 283; Cro. Eliz. 125; Cro. Jac. 463 2 Bl. Rep.
3. Dogs, if dangerous animals, may lawfully be killed, when their
ferocity is known to their owner, or in self-defence 13 John. R. 312; 10
John. R. 365; and when bitten by a rabid animal, a dog may be lawfully
killed by any one. 13 John. R. 312.
4. When a dog, in consequence of his vicious habits, becomes a common
nuisance, the owner may be indicted. And when he commits an injury, if the
owner had a knowledge of his mischievous propensity, he is liable to an
action on the case. Bull. N. P. 77; 2 Str. 1264; Lord Raym. 110. 1 B. & A.
620; 4 Camp. R. 198; 2 Esp. R. 482; 4 Cowen, 351; 6 S. & R. 36; Addis. R.
215; 1 Scam. 492 23 Wend 354; 17 Wend. 496; 4 Dev. & Batt. 146.
5. A man has a right to keep a dog to guard his premises, but not to
put him at the entrance of his house, because a person coming there on
lawful business may be injured by him, and this, though there may be another
entrance to the house. 4 C. & P. 297; 6 C. & P. 1. But if a dog be chained,
and a visitor so incautiously go near him that he is bitten, he has no right
of action against the owner. 3 Chit. Bl. 154, n. 7. Vide Animal; Knowledge;
Scienter.
