Summary
Pathe Intertitles - "(Filmed at Leighton Buzzard)" One shot

"Although they’re big fellows, bloodhounds are of an affectionate and easy-going disposition, and not half as ferocious as their name implies -". Two shots
"Long-eared and solemn-faced, what a bloodhound can’t hear he can smell - (And notice the folds of surplus skin)." One shot
"The pups are just like any other pups - fond and playful -". Three shots
"And there’s enough surplus skin on a puppy to make another one, same pattern". One shot.
