CHARLOTTEAN WARREN HUNT
-With three of his prized canines
IDog Collector
Hunt Collects Rare Breeds
by Susan Ellsworth
Post Staff Writer
Spock, Sheherazade and
Sanguange-who or what are
they?
The names belong to three
dogs: a Siberian Husky, an
Afghan hound and an old
English sheepdog, respective
ly. The canines belong to
Char lottean Warren Hunt He
collects dogs.
As the current keeper of a
Siberian Husky, two Afghan
hounds and two old English
sheepdogs. Hunt said he has
owned up to nine dogs at any
one time.
Hunt’s interest is to keep the
dogs for only three to four
months then sell or give them
away. He admitted however,
to retaining ooe of his sheep
dogs for one and ooe-half
years.
An insh or Russian wolf
hound will be the aim of his
next canine acquisition, be
said.
When Hunt, 20, began col
lecting dogs five years ago, he
wasn't concerned whether the
animals were mixed breeds or
pedigree. Three years ago be
began concentrating on accu
mulating only pedigree dogs.
“INwigrees srwfisiar to tell
than mixed breeda,” Hunt
explained.
Although he was once afraid
of dogs, Hunt overcame that
fear when be was nine years
old. His mother brought home
a kindly, protective collie,
which the family named
Lassie. After befriending
Lassie, Hunt began to like
Washing Windows
You’ll save yourself a lot of
time and trouble in washing
windows when you use verti
cal strokes on the inside panes
and horizontal on the outside;
or vice versa. That way you
won’t keep running In and out
to get the places you missed.

DOOR HINGE DILEMMA
A door In your house Is i
problem to open? You’n
pretty sure the wood is noi
swollen and you don’t be
lieve in elves. Check to set
if the door sags at the oper
end. If so, a loose hinge if
the problem and it’s a snar
to flH.
A loose hinge is usuallj
caused by enlarged scree
holes; the screws simply dc
not hold the hinge tightly
and, thus, the door sags.
To solve the problem, re
move the loose screw (01
screws). Put one or mort
wooden toothpicks into thi
enlarged hole and squirt t
small amount of Elmer’i
Olue-AU into the hole.
Then replace the screw. I
it doesn’t take hold, yot
may need to Insert anothei
toothpick. The screw will
bend the excess of tooth
picks as you work it Into thi
hole. Break or cut off the
ends and work screw all the
way in. The toothpicks wili
take up the extra space ant
the glue will increase the
screw’s holding power.
Wipe off any excess glut
with a damp sponge. You
now have a sagless door.

dogs, especially large hairy
ones.
Hunt said he paid from $5 to
$400 for each of his dogs.
The moat expensive was a
sheepdog costing $400, follow
ed by an Afghan hound at $2S0
and then a Siberian Husky for
$150.
Dog pounds, ads in the news
papers and word-of-moutb
communication provide Hunt
with potential sources for new
canine possessions.
Among his favorites, Hunt
who is single and a cook at the
Uptown Burger King, is alert
for sheepdogs and Afghan
hounds.
Hunt said, however, that be
has collected German Shep
ards, collies, and Dobermans
mostly in the past few years.
He allows his pets to roam
freely throughout the Dale
brook neighborhood in north
west Charlotte where be and
his mother live
“The dogs don’t bother the
neighbors," Hunt remarked.
What kind of dogs appeal to
him?
“Quick, active, large, hairy,
beautiful and obedient dogs
do,” Hunt replied.
‘‘I enjoy the beauty of the
dog” continued this dog collec
tor who says he buys 100
pounds of dog food every two
weeks. -
Hunt mentioned he may
consider breeding dogs as a
secondary job. His m«in
interest now though, is to
return to Johnson C. Smith
University in the Fall and
continue his study of interme
diate education.
