Unexpected cold snaps had destroyed the buds on my father's young peach tree for two years in a row. This spring Dad was ready. He replanted the sapling in a large box, mounted it on wheels, and put the tree in the garage whenever the temperature dropped.
One warm April day Dad was wheeling the tree out into the yard, and stopped to give our dog a drink from the garden hose. A neighbor watched the scene with amusement. "Frank," he finally commented, "you're the only man I know who walks his tree and waters his dog!"
To The Rescue
To his dog, every man is Napoleon; hence the constant popularity of dogs.
~Aldous Huxley
A large kangaroo would make a great long-distance jumper, covering more than thirty feet with a single jump.
