simple_a bite_n of_o a_o dog_n take_v the_o urine_n of_o a_o dog_n which_o be_v sufficient_a since_o there_o be_v but_o little_a venom_n in_o those_o wound_n to_o lay_v the_o hair_n of_o the_o same_o

will_v kill_v the_o mange_n remember_v you_o shift_v his_o kennel_n and_o litter_n often_o if_o the_o spaniel_n lose_v its_o hair_n as_o it_o often_o happen_v then_o bathe_v your_o spaniel_n in_o
