Whether it be a Kinnaird council meet- ing or one at Castlegar (and, we suspect, one at Trail, Kamloops or where have you) the subject of dogs always comes up on an all too regular basis. It seems to be the one matter that has municipal councils everywhere stumped. If a dog catcher is appointed he doesn’t last long in the position, or else a pound is established only to close its doors until ano- ther operator can be found. And this official sense of frustration and indecision in the matter is reflected in the residents of a community who — justifi- ably perhaps, but wrongly — ask themselves such questions as: “Why should I buy a tag body else seems to.” For these reasons district residents should applaud the tough attitude being taken by Castlegar aldermen on the matter. They've announced a crack-down on canines and intend to put the problem of dogs under strict control. We applaud their action but suggest the |? proof of the pudding will be in the catch- ing.
