Ten White Woolly Wonders See Nothing Wrong in a Dog's Life BY JO ALDWICKLE Take a dozen eggs and scram- ble them lightly in a gallon of milk. Measure out 10 servings of whole grain dog food and have ready the daily dosage of vitamins and calcium and cod liver oil and you would' have but one day's breakfast for Tasha's pups. Tasha whose full name is Burncranna Kinga Tasha, is the Canadian Champion Kuvasz owned by Mr. and Mrs, T. J. Grosart of Oshawa, known among dog fanciers as the pro- prietors of "Tall Grass Ken- nels, the Canadian Home of The Kuvasz'. Early on New Year's Day, Tasha produced a litter of 10 puppies; 10 pure white fluffy bundles that weighed about one pound apiece. Now, a little more than two months old, they weigh an average of 25 pounds, By the time they are two years old and fully grown they will stand 28 inches high, tall enough to rest their majestic heads comfort- ably on. the dining table, and weigh about 100 pounds. As well as their healthy break- fast, Tasha's pups have three other meals a day composed mostly of thick jelly made by boiling down marrow bones with carrots and onions and, for a bedtime snack, a bucket of milk. When they are bigger, they will prefer a cold temperature; their thick, fleecy coat would protect them against the bitter- est cold, but right now they are gambolling in heated kennels with the added luxury of infra- red lamps From ali this, it is easy to the zoo in Brno to ship another male and female on condition he send two Canadian wild geese or other Canadian animals in exchange. "Our Tasha, born in 1960, was the pick of the first Canadian- born litter." A far as they can ascertain, Mr. and Mrs. Grosart are the only Canadian breeders of these handsome and affectionate animals, Last year only 19 Ku- vaszok (plural) were registered on the North American contin- ent. The word of their fine qualities and appearance is spreading, however, and Tas- ha's first pups were sought by doglovers in Regina, Calgary, New York and Los Angeles with two remaining in Oshawa. ENQUIRY FROM CARACAS Already Mrs. Grosart has re- ceived enquiries by mail and telephone from Caracas, Vene- zuela; Alabama; Westchester, Illinois; Montreal and Morgans- town, West Virginia. The word from which these dogs derive their name means "Armed guard of the nobility. For centuries they served as faithful personal guards to Hungary's aristocracy. | During the 15th century, King Mathias I put more trust in his dogs than he did in the ambiti- ous men about him. A Kuvasz accompanied him everywhere and stood sentry inside his door. : ~ The king's kennels also bred the Kuvasz for the hunt, Gifts of pups were a sign of royal favor to loyal nobles and visit- ing dignitaries. »10f the most peaceful," she said, of working himself into a high other dog attack him, he eng TASHA, right, keeps a watchful eye on her family able of all dogs, as well as one while monster Darab nuzzled at her knee.
