Note 114 — ARRIAN ON COURSING.
William Dansey translation
The Cynosophium substitutes the lungs for the liver of a bullock, as nutriment for puppies, when deprived of milk—εἰ γάλα μὴ ἔχεις. See Cynosoph. p. 271.
On the feeding of puppies Nemesian observes, that it should be regulated by the season of the year, atmospheric temperature, &c.
Cynegeticus v. 161.
Interdumque cibo Cererem cum lacte ministra, Fortibus ut succis teneras complere medullas Possint, et validas jam tunc promittere vires:
but during the intense heat of summer the puppies are to be kept on lighter food, and then again on meal and whey,
Ejusdem v. 182.
Tunc rursus miscere sero Cerealia dona Conveniet, fortemque dari de frugibus escam.
