We'd like to let all the con-

» Usk to. know that they are hap-
* pily living in Prince George. -

An ‘animals being kept out-

side require some sort of shelter

to cut the wind and ta protect
them from ‘the rain and the
snow,

A three-sided’ shelter with a
roof will, provide a: decent
shelter for your livestock: A

- cardboard box does not make a

proper shelter for a- dog,
especially in wet weather, and
yet we have had several calls
where where the only shelter
available was a wet cardboard
box.

A dog house made of wood,
metal, etc. is not that hard to
build and with some kind of dry

a new residence

bedding inside, it makes a very
cozy shelter for your dog.

- Weask that you make sure all
hour animals have the basics of
life — shelter, food and water.
_ We depend on public dona-
tions ‘although we do receive
some support from the main
branch in Vancouver. But once
and if we get a branch going
here, we will depend entirely on
public donations..
