Slut, the female pig trained to be a pointer-dog or gun-dog by Richard Toomer, gamekeeper to Sir Henry Mildmay
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This 19th-century print showcases an extraordinary tale of animal training and the unique bond between man and beast. Meet Slut, the remarkable black sow who defied expectations as she was transformed into a skilled pointer-dog or gun-dog under the guidance of Richard Toomer, gamekeeper to Sir Henry Mildmay. In this handcoloured copperplate engraving from Reverend Thomas Smith's The Naturalists Cabinet, we witness Slut in action. With her snout pointed towards a game bird hidden in the undergrowth, she grunts with anticipation while a hunter lurks nearby with his musket at the ready. This scene perfectly captures both the intensity and harmony that existed between human and animal during their hunting expeditions. The image not only highlights Slut's exceptional abilities but also sheds light on Toomer's expertise as he successfully broke this unlikely candidate for such tasks. A testament to patience and dedication, it is clear that these two companions shared an unbreakable connection forged through training sessions in pursuit of their common goal. This fascinating glimpse into history reminds us of humanity's age-old reliance on animals for various purposes. It serves as a reminder that even unconventional partnerships can yield astonishing results when nurtured with care and respect.
