Photograph was edited for publication purposes Photograph caption dated December 8, 1961 reads, "Four-year-old Anita Galvin, 10554 Cayuga Ave., Pacoima, looks over the two Shetland ponies now at the Valley Animal Shelter, 13131 Sherman Way, North Hollywood. The animals were caught 'horsing around' Thursday in Hollywood, when two Hollywood police officers answered a prowler call at a motel at 5832 Sunset Blvd. and found the ponies wedged between the motel and another building. The animals were taken to the Valley shelter in a horse trailer and, if no one claims them, they'll be turned over to the state."
