Once upon a time there was a dog called Jock. He was black in colour, and there is no doubt that he was a handsome dog. He kept fit by taking lots of exercise, and sometimes he was out for the whole day trying to catch a rabbit. He never caught one, but he didn't mind, because there was always a good meal waiting at home. Jock liked all the other animals who lived near, but every day without fail he visited his best friend, Sally, Mr Priestley's cat. He was very glad of Sally's company, and Sally enjoyed his visits too.
