Book Description
The little black dog awakened to the scent of a dangerous creature prowling outside. She had been hushed enough times during the day to understand that her rigorous bark would not be met with a welcome response. An exhausted mother rushed to the cry of her newborn baby, as a frustrated father drug the little dog harshly toward the metal chain in the front yard. Suddenly, with a flip of her head, the little dog yanked herself free. Against the commands of her owner, she pulled away and dissapeared into the dark forest that surrounded them. "Stupid dog! Bad stupid dog!" were the last words she heard as she leapt through the split rail fence.She sucked down a deep draw of cold mountain air and felt its icy burn rush past her nose and lungs. She was bigger on the inside than the task she was undertaking, but she was driven by a God-given sense of duty that is placed inside of every faithful dog. She soon discovered that being brave behind a window was quite different than being brave in front of something with teeth and claws. The battle ended quickly and now she lay there, hovering between barely alive and not yet dead. Her thick, blue collar was torn away, and her tags were scattered somewhere beneath the canopy of the forest floor. The day went on, the sun set, and no one came searching for the little black dog. This wonderful tale is full of noble deeds and suspensful moments that will keep your heart on the edge of its emotional seat until the very end.
