SearchVet Manual DHP'sThe first-ever manual for Veterinarians and communities undertaking dog health programs in remote Indigenous communities. FREE to AMRRIC members QuotesSo dogs are friends, ceremonies, totems. They’re keeping people warm and acting as security to wake people up, [for] old people sleeping, [watch out for] drunks. It’s a friend and a sacred animal. I said to Nana, ‘Nana, where am I going to camp? She said you got to camp in that humpy. The dogs will keep you warm.’ So I had ten dogs over me to keep me warm. |
