Down To The Workers
(N.Z. Press Association) MASTERTON, July 13. Should hounds really be demoted to the rank of “working dogs,” as decreed by the Kennel Club in Britain, simply because working dogs cost less to register? Sporting and domestic dogs cost £l, workers, only 6s.
Whatever the merits for and against, the Wairarapa Huiit Club wrote to the Masterton County Council, requesting a special rebate for its hounds—and this was granted at the council’s monthly meeting today. As a result of this special concession, the elite of the dog world in the Wairarapa has been relegated to working class.
