"No mention of that local hunt, Watson," said Holmes with a mischievous smile, "but a country doctor, as you very astutely observed.

"Nenhuma menção àquela caçada local, Watson", disse Holmes com um sorriso malicioso, "mas um médico do interior, como você muito perspicazmente observou.

I think that I am fairly justified in my inferences.

Creio que estou bastante justificado em minhas inferências.

As to the adjectives, I said, if I remember right, amiable, unambitious, and absent-minded.

Quanto aos adjetivos, eu disse, se bem me recordo, afável, sem ambição e distraído.

It is my experience that it is only an amiable man in this world who receives testimonials, only an unambitious one who abandons a London career for the country, and only an absent-minded one who leaves his stick and not his visiting-card after waiting an hour in your room."

É minha experiência que é apenas um homem afável neste mundo quem recebe recomendações, apenas um homem sem ambição quem abandona uma carreira em Londres pelo interior, e apenas um distraído quem deixa sua bengala e não seu cartão de visita após esperar uma hora em seu quarto."

"And the dog?"

"E o cão?"

"Has been in the habit of carrying this stick behind his master.

"Tinha o hábito de carregar esta bengala atrás de seu dono.

Being a heavy stick the dog has held it tightly by the middle, and the marks of his teeth are very plainly visible.

Por ser uma bengala pesada, o cão a segurou firmemente pelo meio, e as marcas de seus dentes são bem claramente visíveis.

The dog's jaw, as shown in the space between these marks, is too broad in my opinion for a terrier and not broad enough for a mastiff.

A mandíbula do cão, como mostrado pelo espaço entre essas marcas, é larga demais em minha opinião para um terrier e não larga o suficiente para um mastim.

It may have been—yes, by Jove, it _is_ a curly-haired spaniel.

Pode ter sido — sim, por Júpiter, é um spaniel de pelo encaracolado.
