A Brave Dog

I read this story in a newspaper.

It was midnight.

The people were all fast asleep.

The house was burning.

A pet dog saw the smoke, and knew there was a fire.

The dog barked and barked,

until he awoke all the people.

He saved the lives of all the people.

He saved the life of a baby, too.

But the dog himself was so badly burned that he died.

The people buried him

in a little grave in a back yard.

They will never forget this brave dog.
