Can you without any discomfort to your dog, grip him behind the shoulders and lift him up by gathering up the skin? If this action causes discomfort to your dog, then you may be sure he is "hide-bound"—a condition that needs attention for healths sake.

Putting these issues aside, it is clear that many of Nanking's leaders have never taken kindly to the Young Marshal, viewing his every action with suspicion. And that at- titude still persists.
