Big honour for Whangarei hound

A former Whangarei SPCA dog has made the big time. Bailey, an eight-year-old scruffy brown canine has shown dogs don't need a pedigree to be models in America'.

Bailey, who is owned by Whangarei SPCA co-ordinator Sue McDonald, was spotted on a billboard in Georgia advertising a roofing company.

In her spare time, Sue takes photos for iStockphoto.com, a website selling pictures for advertising material.

Bailey is among her best models.

Sue says her pictures of Bailey are very popular and have been used on several websites but this is the first she has seen one on a billboard.
