Dogs Behind the Dogs at War
Campaign to Enlist CANNES
In War Service Opens Jam. n
By Gretchen Smith

A patriotic call to colors will be
sounded for Washington dogs in q
campaign for canine recruits to en-.
list in the great army Of civilian
"dogs behind the dogs at war;" to be
held from January "a to Frebruary
throughout the Capital. Campaign
and drive-blase Washington should

raising effort, which is perhaps the
most unique of the many hundred.
.sunched In the long history Of
Capitsl campaigns.
All dogs claSsed as K-9 ATS will
be given chance to do their bit by
tugging at masters pocketbook ane
asking for a contribution which will
enable them to "join up" with the
Civilian Canine Corps.
The scheme to allow dogs physi.
cally or otherwise disqualified TO,
service in Dogs for Defense to joir
in the war effort was started last
February in New York by leader oi
the organization whose prize win.
ming fox terrier was debarred from
service because of his size.
This dog lover figured that if his
little pooch were too small to fight
there ought to be some way for him
to help other dogs in service, just as
he helps other men fight. by buying
bonds. So out of this thought
stemmed plan whereby K-9 4-Fs
are given the chance to wag patriotic
tails, proudly conscious that they
also serve with their brothers and
sisters in the Army, Navy, Marine
Corps and Coast Guard.
Eligible Dogs.
From his thought, War Dog Fund
was born. Every dog owner can give
his pet the chance to serve as pri-
vate or general in the Army or sea-
man or admiral in the Navy by q
contribution to the War Dog Fund.
Money raised by enlistment fees" in
the civilian dog army will be used to
process dogs for active duty.
The Army pays for the training of
members of the K-9 Corps, but does
not cover the $40 cost of processing
a dog before it enters the corps.
Members of Dogs for Defense, the
organization which procures dogs
for the armed forces, donate their
time, tires and gasoline to recruit
ing and examining new enlistments
for fitness. But funds are needed
for registration, examination, crat-
ing and shipping dogs to induction
centers, as well as to pay veterinar-
ians to assure the physical condition
Of the dogs before they are re-
shipped from induction centers to
one of the military training depots.
There are many of these training
and receiving centers throughout the
country, one of the most important
being at Front Royal, Va, about IS
miles from Washington. This charge
is now being carried by the War
Dog Fund so that every enlistment
of a K-9 4-F means so much more
money available for this "doggie"
contribution to the war effort.
