p. 57 · Read in the full issue

■ Lae’s rainfall for the year has been 90 inches. 1 That’s a lot of rain, nearly 8 feet, but at least one local pooch not getting his feet wet.

He’s Toby Robertson, a fox terrier, and whenever the rain comes nvn, Toby’s stormwater boots go up!

"It saves me a lot of work,” says his owner, Miss Pat Robertson, to muddy paw marks all over my car seats or my floors any more, toy's shoes come off the second he steps in the house”

Miss Robertson says the boots are easy to make, too.

Just cut out four socks from old scraps of material, cover this th rubber or plastic solution to make them water-proof and tie e tops with tapes.
