Unlucky Dogs

One of the unluckiest things that
can happen to a breed of dogs is to
get fashionable, says the Cleveland
Press. This means that the dogs
will be transplanted in huge mum
bers from their natural environments
to over-heated apartments. 1t means
in many cases, that hardy animals
bred to hunt and fight will have to
eat chocolates and sleep on silk pill

One of the popular breeds these
days is the Scotch terrier. Certain

This meal in itself which pre-

work up the appetite to feats of

Unfortunately, those days have
gone with depression, and modern
