Turtle the Sheepdog
There was once a dog named Turtle. He was a sheepdog, and he always had trouble concentrating, even when it came to the herd. His owners, thought something was wrong with him because he liked to chase butterflies in the pasture. Here is the story of one of Turtle's regular days.
"Arf! Arf!" Turtle barked, trying to get the herd together safely. It was hard work and he wanted to do something fun. SUDDENLY, he saw a monarch butterfly, right at the end of the pasture, near the woods. "ARF! ARF!" Yelped Turtle excitedly, running off towards the butterfly. He ran as fast as he could, with all his might! Finally, he was right at the butterfly. HE RAN, HE POUNCED, HE MISSED, HE LANDED face first into the ground... He got up, looked around, and saw it flying around, clearly teasing him! BUT HE WOULDN'T STOP! He ran and jumped as high as he could and amazingly landed on his feet. He jumped again and again, the butterfly still taunting him! But he knew he could do it, he knew it! One of his owners came out and squinted his eyes to see in the sunlight. He saw Turtle chasing the butterfly. "Honey! He's doing it again!" He called. "Are you sure that dog has had all his shots?" Asked the other owner coming out to watch. "I'm pretty sure." He sighs. Meanwhile, Turtle almost had it! That butterfly couldn't outfly him! He jumped, unwilling to give up, and....HE GOT IT! HE HAD IT IN HIS PAWS, PINNED TO THE GROUND! He had won, he barked happily to claim his win! Then, he moved his paw to look....the butterfly flew away! BUT IT DIDN''T MATTER! HE HAD WON!
And so, that is how most of Turtle's days go by...
No butterflies were harmed in this story.
