ANSWERS TO QUERIES
E. NJ. O., Monterey-The reason you
see so many Pomeranians with the pre-
fix Of1ey attached to their name IS that
there is a kennel by that name All
dogs from this kennel bear that prefix,
as Of9ey Honey Dew, Offiey Dairyman,
Omey Wee Blackie. etc. The Olney
kennels are the property of Mrs. Lang
ton Dennis Of1ev. Poundgate, Uckneid.
Eng Among other noted dogs owned
bv her are Daybrook Masterpiece, Ch.
81 Julien. Of1ey Sable Mite. Oh. Young
Dragon Fly, Home Farm Triumph, Of
hey Shining Light, Saucy Atom and OF
flew Honeymoon.-J. r. b. Jr.
r. A.. Oakdale-The public pound in
San Francisco is conducted by the So
cietv for the Prevention or Cruelty TO
Animals at sixteenth and Alabama
streets While there is an occasional
case where fairly nice dog can be had
at the public pound, these cases are
rare as white crows. 1t Is cheap way
to get dog, 1T is true, but In the long
run 1T Is by far the most expensive.
You do not know the breedings or any
particulars of pound dog. You may
find fair one to look at, but his uttl-
ity ceases there. You are taking great
chances of taking to your home mango,
distemper or any of the many dog dis
eases-J r. 3. Jr.
ysD s.. Sacramento-From your de-
scription you probably wish an Irish
water spaniel. Yes, they make pertect
duck dogs; In fact, that Is what they
are bred for.
!. ]. Nc. Oakland-No. the Never
Never Land kennels have not changed
hands The reason you once saw them
advertised as the property or Miss Mary
Winthrop was that Mrs. Mary w. SIur-
ner's maiden name was Winthrop.
They can be reached at Shelter island
Heights, New York, N. Y.
