Tell me a story...

 me:  Tell me a story.

      About a dog.

      Please.

 Peter:  There was this dog and he was walking along the canal side, and as he walked along thinking, 'What a lovely day; that tree smells interesting...' he heard a sound.

It was a splishing, splashing noise and he looked up and saw there was a small child floundering in the water.

The dog jumped into the cold water and

swam

swam

swam

across the canal 

and he swam right up to the struggling, gasping child

and kept on swimming to where there was a really awesome stick.

He got the stick and climbed out of the canal, giving him a shake to dry himself.

'What a fab day!' thought the dog, chewing on his stick.

The End

Thank you, Peter, for always being there when I need a really, really good story.

PS No, seriously. Click that link. It goes to his blog and it's rather good.
