All About Dogs Billy Lang Appointed AKC Field Representative

Billy Lang, longtime Elyria resident and former local kennel operator, has been named Field Representative for the southern states by the American Kennel Club.

Aged dog Queenie from East Moline amazed readers at 21 years, defying typical Chihuahua lifespans. County auditor Frank Ayers notes dog licenses are available, with a $2 dog tax and $10 kennel license, due by January 20 to avoid a $1 fine. A light anecdote recalls a Swiss Alps snowstorm tale featuring a St Bernard with brandy.
