SHAVER'S NEW PUPPY,
FATTENED ON BOTTLE,
NOW TAKES TO HAMBURG:
There was rejoicing in the
Claude Shaver household Mon-
day when their five-week old
Pomeranian pup refused her
bottle and began to munch
hamburgs and shredded wheat.
The puppy's mother, pedi-
greed “Koko” owned by Car-
ol Shaver became ill just after
the baby’s birth and was un-
able to feed her. Grandma
Shaver, quickly rising to the
occasion, telephoned to bring
mother and baby up from
Boundbrook, N.J. pronto, and
she’d try her luck with medi-
cine dropper and bottle. The
puppy — not the Shavers —
thrived on the midnight and
early morning feedings.
Now a fluffy ball of mis-
chief that howls fretfully when
she gets her bottom wet in a
dish of evaporated milk, the
pup has graduated to a diet of
mixed vegetables and meat—
to the delight of the entire
household!
