The Smart Dog
On a sunny day Henry and Henry's mother and Henry's big dog Mudge were sitting on their front porch.
A man with a collie walked by.
Suddenly the man stopped.
"Sit," said the man. The collie sat.
"Down," said the man. The collie lay down.
Henry looked at Mudge. Mudge looked at Henry.
They both looked at the collie.
"Stay," said the man.
Then he walked a long way down the street.
He didn't look back. The collie stayed.
The man turned down another street and disappeared.
The collie stayed.
After a while the man came back.
"Susie, heel," he said to the collie, and they walked down the street together.
Henry looked at his mother. "Wow," he said.
"Smart dog," she said. Henry looked at Mudge.
"Mudge, heel," said Henry, and he walked down the steps.
Mudge rolled over and started to drool.
"Well, at least he's good at staying,'' Henry said.
"Except when company comes," said Henry's mother.
"Right." Henry frowned.
"And when the cat next door wants to visit," said Henry's mother.
"Right." Henry frowned some more.
"And when your dad is mowing the grass," said Henry's mother.
"Right." Henry frowned even more.
"Maybe Mudge needs to go to school," Henry said to his mother. "Maybe."
"Maybe Mudge needs a nice teacher like Mrs. Crocus," Henry said.
Mrs. Crocus was Henry's second grade teacher.
"Maybe." Henry's mother smiled.
"Mudge," said Henry, "do you want to go to school?"
Mudge snored and drooled.
"I hope dog school has nap time," said Henry.
"And lots of paper towels," said Henry's mother, looking at her porch.
School
Henry went shopping for Mudge's first day of school.
He bought Mudge a new red leash.
He bought Mudge a new silver collar.
He bought Mudge a box of liver treats.
And Henry bought himself a paddle-ball because he was nervous.
Henry liked to play paddle-ball when he was nervous.
And he was nervous because he thought Mudge might flunk dog school.
