“He sounded concerned. “Don't do anything foolish » he said. “Don’t risk your life. No dog, not even Jet, is worth that.”

[ couldn’t quite agree with that. In my book a map should be as willing to risk his life to save a dog from suffering as he would to save a person. I suppose that sounds immature, or at least sentimental. But I know that if a barn full of horses was on fire, I’d work just as hard to save it as if the barn was full of people.”
