6. SCOTTY One Sunday morning in winter Fred went for a walk along the sea-shore. It was a cold day and the beach was deserted. At the end of the beach Fred was sitting down to rest when a small white dog suddenly appeared and lay down at his feet. Fred stroked his head and the dog licked his hand. When Fred started to walk home, it followed him and he could not get rid of it. It had a collar on, but there was no name on the collar, so when he got home, he rang up the nearest police station. He told the sergeant in charge that he had found a small white dog, and that he would keep it until its owner claimed it. Fred gave him his name and address. Two days later, a lady came to his house to claim the dog. She said she had lost it because it hated riding in cars, and on that Sunday, it had jumped out of the open window of the car without her noticing it. She offered Fred some money, but of course, he refused to take any money. She called her dog Scotty and it followed her as obediently as it had followed him. Fred was sorry to lose such a friendly little animal.
