JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, Dec. 28 (UPI) -- South African President Jacob Zuma was warning against loving animals more than humans when he said having pet dogs was part of white culture, a spokesman said.
In a rally Wednesday in KwaZulu-Natal province, Zuma told thousands of supporters people who spent money on dogs, taking them to the vet and for walks, belong in white culture, not African culture, South African newspaper Mercury reported.
