Story Fourteen


Doris Jean’s parents became concerned when she formed an unusual bond with the new farm dog.
 Doris Jean named him Tip and acted like they were siblings,
spending all waking hours together with animated, one-sided conversations.  
They gave the dog to an acquaintance in the neighboring county only to find Tip back at their home three days later.  

When Doris Jean fell through the ice of the pond, 
it was Tip who alerted the family. 

After the pond incident, Tip was allowed to stay in the house as a beloved family member 
until he passed shortly after Doris Jean’s eighteenth birthday.
