A Day With The Dogs

The Nelson Kennel Club's annual show attracted entries - and many varied ones - from all parts of the Nelson and Marlborough provinces and from as far afield as Christchurch and Wellington. Among the unusual dogs paraded were a pair of chihuahuas, pint-sized pups, and an Afghan hound, used overseas for hunting leopards.
