Jliss Kruger said she had no idea how much is spent nation ally for accessorizing man's best friend. But some of her custom ers plunk down as much as $75 for a handeaded and crocheted collar and $600 for a mink coat. Billions Spent on Dog The Wall Street Journal In a recent roundup on the pet busi ness, said some owners spend as much as $3,000 a year. It esti mated the pet-shop spending on all types of pets at three billion dollars annually. The total is 10 times the 1936 figure, the publi cation said. The spending rate on humans has only doubled in that time. Miss Kruger's "Chi-Chi-Chien" shop on Manhattan's upper Park avenue gets a good chunk of the carriage trade members of the Vanderbilt, Rockefeller and Ford families are customers. Princess Grace of Monaco is, when she's in town. Miss Kruger said the former actress, when she was preparing to wed Prince Rainier, had her poodle, "Oliver," accessorized to match her trousseau. Recently when the couple returned to the United ' States for a visit, the princess came into Chi-Chi-Chien to announce: "Oliver has taken a wife; she needs some things." The new dog addition to the royal family is a brown poodle. Miss Kruger said Elizabeth Taylor and Mike Todd are steady customers. They own three toy poodles. Recently the glamor ous Liz came in minus her hus band and purchased several ac cessories including one sapphire mink coat from stock. "Next day, Todd brought it back. . .without comment,".-said Miss Kruger. Miss Kruger, who owns a standard poodle named '"Roz," had been in advertising, done grooming and obedience training and written a pet column before she opened shop three years ago. Most of her business is with poodles, because New York is full of them. But she has dressed everything from pomeranians to great danes. "THEY get tailored type thing," for customers from Alaska to Africa. Hers is one of the few shops doing a mail order business. 4 Society Girl Scouts Miss Elayne Leach Leaves for Japan Miss Elayne Leach, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward L.
