WAR DOGS
APPEAL FOR RECRUITS THOUSANDS OF OFFERS (Rec. 5 p.m.) RUGBY, May 10. The war dog training school at.Willems Barracks, Aldershot. has been inundated with letters in reply to an appeal made by the War Office only four days ago to lend dogs to the army for war work for the duration of hostilities. It will be a considerable time before the tens of thousands of offers already made can be dealt with. The offers ranged from cocker spaniels to Pekinese, and the War Office stated that for the time being no more offers would be invited.
