THE LUCKY COUNTRY FOR DOGS

The  saying   Man's best friend is  his  dog is true when you  look  at   the  wide  range  of  gourmet  tucker being offered for canines  at  a new stall  in  the  large   Castle Town  shopping   complex  in Townsville .   


Called  One For Each Paw, the  Hervey Bay , Queensland  , based  company, which  offers a range  of  handmade, quality  Australian dog treats  , including  pig  ears, chicken pops, kangaroo jerky, roo sticks, eclairs and   even  ice cream cones,   has  been going for ll years   .


The Queensland politician, Bob Katter senior, who claims one of his constituents is regularly devoured by a crocodile  and  has long called for a  cull of saurians , will probably buy a  lot of  the above dog treat. He might also  be  interested  in  the  tasty shark  tail. 

Last night  SBS television  had a  special  Insight show which highlighted  the joy  of  dog  ownership  in  Australia.  Vallis  pix.
