can Red Cross.
Most of the army of American war
dogs will be trained and sent abroad
as parts of Red Cross units, under

will provide dog mobilization and
training camps Nearly every offer of
dogs received by Baker stipulate that
the fanciers themselves will train the
CANNES according to war dog training
regulations.

ready has trained seven of his famous
dogs And sent them to France with
American Red Cross units. At sew
eral places thruout the country war

bring back bit of the mans clothing
to the stretcher bearers. But barking
drew the enemy's fire and the dogs
often tore at bandages on wounded
mems arms and legs. We are training
our dogs merely to return to the
stretcher bearers and lead them to
the wounded"
