TWO STORIES
ABOUT DOGS

SPOT
1
1 hate Stephen Mackay now. If I see him again, I may
kill him. And to think that he was my best friend only
a few years ago!
But let me tell rriy story to you from the beginning. That
autumn we started very late for the Klondike. We had
little time and it was difficult to buy dogs. We paid about
one hundred dollars for each dog. And among these dogs
we got Spot. We paid even more for him than for the other
dogs. We paid one hundred and ten dollars for him.
He looked a very good dog. I say “looked" because we
soon saw he was not really a good dog. He only looked
good. He was big and he had a beautiful white and brown
skin. And on this skin there was a big black spot. This is
why we called him Spot. He was strong! And you could
see in his eyes he was clever! 1 think he was perhaps the
strongest and cleverest dog in all Alaska.
But he did not use his strength. It is true he used his
intelligence. But he did not use it in the right way. You
will see a little later how he used it.
2
The principal thing about Spot was this: he didn’t work!
We saw that the first time we put him into harness. It
was like this. It was time to start. Steve gave the signal.
3
All the dogs began to pull. Only Spot stood still. Steve
touched him with his whip. Spot did not move. Steve
touched him with the whip again, this time a little stron-
ger. This had no effect! Spot stood where he was. Now
Steve got very angry and gave it to him well. But still Spot
stood quite still.
In a moment 1 came up to Steve.
“Why are you beating the dog?’’ 1 asked him.
Steve said nothing. He only gave me the whip and
walked away. Now 1 took the whip. I began beating the dog.
I beat him so, I thought he could not live another day. But
it had no effect! I started the other dogs. Still he did not
move. He rolled over and over in the snow on his back but
did not move on.
No, we could not get any work out of that dog!
And how much he ate! And how clever he was when he
wanted to get some food!
We often had no dinner. Why? —you will ask. Spot had
it instead of us.
3
But he did not take food only from us. He took food in
al! the places where he could get it. I cannot tell you how
much we paid for meat, bacon and other good things that
winter. And do you think we ate them? No, Spot ate them.
The people very often saw him and came to get their money
from us.
Why did we not kill him? — you may ask. Well, I can
tell you that. I tried to kill him. One day Steve came to me
and said:
“It is enough. W’e must kill him.’’
I answered: “Yes, it is enough. We must finish with him.”
So 1 took him into the forest, some distance from the
other dogs. Here I stopped. 1 took my revolver. But then
I looked into his eyes. And I tell you, I felt I could not
4
kill him. When I looked into those clever eves I saw it was
like killing a man. He also looked into my eyes. I thought
these eyes spoke to me. They said: "You hate me, but you
cannot kill me.” Do you know what I did? 1 went back to
Steve and told him: “I cannot kill that dog.” Steve laughed
and said: “I think I can do it.” In two or three days he
took Spot into the forest. But he came back telling me he
could not kill the dog. “He has such clever eyes,” said
Steve.
4
As we could not kill him, wc tried to sell him. He looked
a good dog, so people were glad to buy him. Very soon we
sold him to the police for seventy-five dollars. We went to
the North and the policemen went to the South — so we
thought — good-bye, old Spot! I can tell you we were
glad! Six days passed. But in the morning of the seventh
day he was with us again. He came and started a terrible
fight with the other dogs. In two days we sold him to an
official courier. This time he came back In three days.
We were in Alaska the whole winter. We got some money
for our work and we got some money for Spot. We sold
him ten, twenty, thirty times. He always came back and
nobody asked for the money. It was not difficult to sell him.
He looked such a good dog. We sold him for as high as one
hundred and fifty dollars, and wc sold him for as low as
twenty-five dollars. W’e sold him to hunters, we sold him
to policemen, we sold him to doctors, we sold him to
couriers; but he always came back. And at last a time’eame
when everybody knew about Spot and nobody wanted to
buy him.
5
But we could not have this dog with us. He ate our food,
he did not work, he demoralized the other dogs.
6
It was necessary to do something. One day we were tra-
velling in a boat down the Yukon. All our dogs were with
us. I saw an island in front.
“Let us leave him on- this island," I said to Steve.
“What a good idea!” answered Steve. “Yes, let us leave
him on the island.”
We began working energetically with our oars. Soon
we came quite near the island. Spot was in the front part
of the boat. Steve pushed him and in less than a second
he was in the water. In another second he was on the
island and two seconds after that we were already far
from him in the middle of the river. The current was very
strong at this place.
Spot was standing on the island looking at us. He did
not swim after us that time but he probably swam over to
the bank later, because — when we came to Dawson — he
was sitting near the river and waiting for us.
More than ten times we put him on steamers going down
the Yukon. But always he got off them and came back to
us in a day or two.
6
One day Spot took a big piece of meat from Major Din-
widdie’s house in Dawson City. But Major Dinwiddie saw
him. Immediately he took his rifle and fired at Spot.
Do you think he killed him? Nothing of the kind! A
policeman came and said to Major Dinwiddie: “You must
pay five dollars for using fire-arms in the city." Major
Dinwiddie paid five dollars for using fire-arms in the city
and Steve and I paid fifty dollars for the meat. Meat stood
high at Dawson that year.
One day we were on the Yukon in the month of January.
This was near Dawson City. The ice was three feet thick
but there were some water holes in it. Well, and Spot fell
through a water hole. The current carried him down. “This
6
is the end of Spot,” I said to myself. But three hundred
feet below was another big water hole. And what do you
think Spot did? He got out there, shook himself and imme-
diately started a fight with a big Newfoundland dog which
was standing on the bank.
But one day Spot went away from us. And he did not
come back for two months. This is how it was. We were
in a far-off place in Alaska and we had no more food.
Spring was near and we were waiting for the river to
open. We were terribly hungry and we decided to eat our
dogs. And then Spot ran away. Day after day we sat up
waiting for him. But he did not come back and we ate all
the other dogs. And now let me tell you how he came back.
You know what it is when a big river opens in spring.
Millions of tons of ice go up and down in the water. And
in the middle of the river we suddenly saw Spot! We
thought it was clear he could not come to us. He did not
have a chance in a million. But in a moment we saw him
jumping over the ice towards us. More than twenty times
he fell into the water and more than twenty times he got
out again. And at last he was on the bank beside us.
7
In a day or two the river was quite free from ice. We
put our boat into the water and started for Dawson City.
Of course we did not take Spot. We left him on the bank.
But what do you think was the first thing we saw in Daw-
son? It was Spot — sitting on the bank and waiting for us.
In the summer of 1899 1 thought it was enough. I said
nothing to Steve. I just wrote him a note saying good-
bye. Then I took my things and went away. I tell you that
Spot was on my nerves.
I brought some money home and for a time lived happily.
Steve wrote me a letter. It was not a friendly letter: he
7
said he was very angry with me. He said he was angry
because of Spot.
A year passed. And then one Fine morning I came out
into the garden and what do you think I saw? Spot — tied
to a tree and looking at me with his clever eyes.
“How did he come here?” I asked myself. I looked to the
right and I looked to the left. And then I saw Steve — my
old friend Steve, running away from me. I did not stop
him.
My w ife is a very kind woman. She gave Spot some food.
He thanked her immediately by killing her cat. Three days
ago Spot got into Mr. Harvey’s hen house (Mr. Harvey is
our great friend) and kilted twenty hens. Now I must pay
for them. Yesterday, because of Spot, I quarrelled with
my wife.
I never thought Stephen Mackay could do such a thing.
But now I see what he can do No, I cannot even hear his
name! 1 may kill him if 1 see him again!

FOR THE LOVE OF A MAN
1
They were three men with three dogs. The names of the
men were Thornton, Hans and Pete. John Thornton was
the chief of the party. Hans and Pete were his helpers.
The names of the dogs were Buck, Skeet and Nig.
It was early spring. They were all six waiting for the
opening of the Yukon. Then the men could make a boat and
go down the river.
They were all great friends — dogs and men. Even the
dogs were friends. Dogs often fight. But these three never
quarrelled. Buck — a big, strong Newfoundland from the
South — had a wound on his back. It was a very big
wound. Most of the time he was lying on the river bank.
And lying there through the long spring days, watching
the running water, listening to the songs of birds, he felt
that his strength was coming back to him. His friends
helped him as much as they could. Every day Thornton
washed his wound, and Skeet washed his wound too. Skeet
was a little Irish setter which had the doctor instinct. As
a mother cat licks her little ones, so she licked Buck’s
wound. Regularly, each morning after breakfast, she star-
ted her work and continued it for about twenty minutes.
Nig was Buck’s other great friend. He was a huge black
dog with a good nature and eyes that laughed.
Buck was great friends with all of them; but he really
loved only one man, his master — Thornton.
10
Who is loved by his dogs? Only the ideal master — the
master who thinks about his dogs as a father and mother
think about their children. Thornton was such an ideal
master. He not only gave his dogs food when they were
hungry, not only gave them water when they wanted to
drink, not only made them a place to sleep in at night —•
he talked to them. In fact, he talked to them as he talked
to men. How often he sat down with his three dogs round
him and spoke kind words to them, putting his hand now
on the head of one, now on the head of the other!
But of all the three dogs, he loved Buck most.
With Buck he had a special way of showing his love:
he often took the dog’s head between his hands, then
put his own head on Buck’s and at last shook him a little,
calling him different kind names at the same time.
But Buck also had a special way of showing his love:
be liked to take Thornton’s hand in his mouth and then
close his mouth. He did not bite, but you could see the
impress of his teeth for some time after.
Buck was not a civilized dog, he was a dog of the wild
He never put his head on Thornton’s knee as Nig did and
never moved his nose under Thornton’s hand like Skeet.
Only sometimes he came up to Thornton and took Thorn
ton’s hand in his mouth. But he never came to other
people. He never came to Hans and Pete.
He loved a man, but he loved one man only.
And he liked to fight. Skeet and Nig were his friends
and he never quarrelled with them. But if he saw some other
dog he started a fight immediately. And it was always
a life-or-dcath fight.
He knew only too well the law of the wild: kill, or be
killed; eat, or be eaten!
il
Spring came at last! The river was now free of ice and
the men were finishing the boat.
One morning Pete came to Thornton and said: “The
boat is finished! We can start”
The next day they started down the river. Thornton put
all his provisions and the three dogs in the boat. Then
he, Pete and Hans got into the boat themselves and Thorn-
ton pushed off The men began to work energetically with
their oars.
It was difficult getting down that river. In many places
the current was very strong and it was necessary for the
men and dogs to get off. Only Thornton stood in the back
part of the boat all the time working with one oar. Pete
and Hans tied a rope to the boat and w'ent along the
4
In some places the current was so strong that it was
necessary for Hans and Pete to pull the boat back. And
it was not easy work!
At an especially bad spot about half-way dowm the
river, Hans and Pete suddenly pulled the boat with great
strength and Thornton fell into the water. The current car-
ried him down with great speed. In a moment he was only
a small black spot in the white and blue river. In another
moment Hans and Pete saw him no more.
Buck jumped into the water the same second he saw
Thornton’s fall. In a minute he, too, was - -mail
black spot in the white and blue of the river.
At first Thornton understood nothing: he only felt the
cold and saw’ water all round him. But then he thought
“I must swim to the bank.” But no, he could not swim to
the bank. He was not a good swimmer and then it was
too far and the current was too strong. He looked back. But
he could not see Pete and Hans.
12
о
But what was that black spot in the water just behind
him? He looked back again. It was Buck! In a minute the
dog was beside him and Thornton held him by the tail.
“Now I am saved,” thought Thornton.
The dog began furiously beating the water with his
paws. But the bank came no nearer. The current was too
strong! Thornton saw Buck could do nothing. And then,
suddenly, Thornton felt he hit against something hard.
Both he and Buck stopped. The river was running past
them. They were on a big stone just below the water. But
how long could he stay there? The stone was very slip-
pery. He could not stay on it more than a few minutes.
"1 must send Buck for help!” he thought.
And then he commanded: “Go, Buck, go!”
Buck looked at him. He understood Thornton's com-
mand. He understood that only he could save his master.
And he understood that to save his master it was necessary
to leave him and to swim to the bank. In another moment
he was already far, far down the river — a black spot in
the white-blue water.
6
He came to the bank about half a mile lower down the
river. Hans and Pete saw the dog and helped him to get
out of the water.
They looked up the river; they saw Thornton on a stone.
Now it was necessary to do something quickly. Hans and
Pete knew very well that a man could not stay long on
a slippery stone. It was a question of minutes. So, calling
Buck, they ran up the bank as quickly as they could. It
was necessary to get much higher than Thornton’s stone.
Only then could they help Thornton.
13
They ran for nearly a mile. At last they came to a place
far above Thornton’s stone. Here they stopped and Hans
tied a long rope to Buck.
”Go, Buck!” he shouted to the dog. Buck jumped straight
into the river. In a few seconds the current carried him
to the stone. Thornton was still there. The moment Buck
came to him, Thornton closed his arms strongly round the
dog’s neck. Hans and Pete began to pull. And now Thornton
and Buck began their terrible travel to the bank. Their
bodies beat against the stones, water ran into their nose,
mouth and ears, but at last Hans and Pete got them onto
the bank.
7
At first Thornton’s eyes were closed and his face was
pale. But he was not badly wounded. In a moment he
opened his eyes and looked first to the right and then to
the left. He did not say a word but his eyes were asking:
“Where is Buck?”
Hans understood him. He pointed to the boat. Buck was
lying there.
He was not killed but badly wounded, and Skeet was
already licking a new wound on his leg
“We must stop here,” said Thornton: “we must stop
here not only till I am well, but till the dog is all
right.”
And they stopped there for a month, till Buck and he
were quite well again.
The same winter Buck did another great thing.
One day they were sitting in a bar — Thornton, Hans
and Pete. There were many other people in the bar and
all of them drank and talked about dogs.
14
8
Each man said he had the best dog. Thornton said the
same thing. He knew that Buck was the strongest and
best dog of all.
One man said: “I have a dog which can start a sledge
with five hundred pounds."
Another man said: “And I have a dog which can start
a sledge with six hundred pounds and my dog can walk
off with it.”
A third man said his dog could start a sledge with seven
hundred pounds.
And a fourth man said seven hundred and fifty pounds
was not too much for his dog.
“Pooh! pooh!” said John Thornton: “Buck can start
a thousand pounds.”
“And walk off with it for a hundred yards?” asked
Matthewson, one of the men in the bar.
“Yes, and walk off with it a hundred yards,’’ answered
Thornton
“Well,” said Matthewson, “I have a thousand dollars
here. And I shall give them to you if the dog does it. But
will you give me a thousand if he does not start the
sledge?”
Thornton did not answ’er. He did not know what to say.
Half a ton! Could Buck really do it? And then he had not
the one thousand dollars.
“I have a sledge here with tw enty fifty pound sacks on
it.” continued Matthewson
Thornton looked at the faces of all the people in the
bar.
9
Among them he saw the face of an old friend —
O’Brien.
“Can you give me a thousand?” he asked him.
15
“Yes, I can,” said O’Brien. “But do you really think
your dog can do it?”
In less than a minute the bar was deserted. All the men
stood round Matthewson’s sledge.
“No, the dog can’t start the sledge," said the people.
Matthewson laughed. “I shall give you two thousand if
he starts the sledge," he said.
In a moment Buck was harnessed to the sledge. Thornton
came up to him and looked into his clever black eyes. He
thought the dog understood.
“As you love me, Buck. As you love me,” he said to the
dog. Then came a short pause.
“Now, Buck!" — he gave the dog the signal.
Buck pulled. But the sledge did not move.
“Now!” cried Thornton again.
Again Buck pulled and this time the sledge moved just
a little to the right.
10
And then Buck understood. He understood that it was
not right to pull straight. It was necessary to pull first to
the right and then to the left. And he did so. He began
pulling first to the right and then to the left.
The sledge moved to the right, then a little to the left,
then again more to the right, then more to the left and
then started.
“Now, go!” Thornton’s command was like a revolver-
shot.
And the sledge moved. Slowly, slowly, first half a foot,
then a foot, then two feet — and now it was already
moving quite well.
There was absolute silence.
Nobody said a word. The silence lasted ten minutes —
and during ten minutes the sledge moved on.
But then — when the sledge passed the one hundred
yards — all the men began to shout and all hats went high
16
up into the air. Matthewson himself cried: “Seli me the
dog, I will give you three thousand dollars for him!’’
But Thornton did not listen to them.
He went to Buck. He took his head between his hands.
Then he put his own head on Buck’s and at last started
shaking the dog a little.
And Buck took Thornton’s hand in his mouth.
