The Klein's dog, Fido

ANOTHER' STORY that no human
ear will ever hear today remained
hidden behind the sparking
eyes of Fido, a fox terrier.
Fido first came to the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Herman Klein, rural
route 1, Mishawaka, when he was
a pocket-sized, eight-weeks old pup.
For the next seven months the dog
received all the loving care of a
family devoted to its pet. Fido was
taught to shake hands, sit up,
walk on his hind legs and perform
other stunts for his masters.
Then one night while the couple
was doing the evening chores, Fido
was released to exercise. He disappeared
into the darkness. As the
years passed and Fido did not return,
Mr. and Mrs. Klein assumed
that he had died or had been stolen.
Last week Mrs. Klein was sitting
In the living room of her home,
reading. She heard a scratching
sound at the window. Iooking up
she saw a small dog, his body wiggling
furiously with obvious eagerness
to enter the house. Mrs.
Klein's memory flashed back to the
little, beloved puppy of eleven
years past. She rushed to the front
door, admitted the dog.
"The little dickens did all he
could to tell me how very glad he
was to see me," she said. "He licked
my face, whined and fairly
cuddled in my arms."
Still not believing it possible
that the friendly stranger could be
her long lost Fido, the woman
rummaged for a snapshot taken of
the pet years before. There was
no mistaking the tell-tale markings.
It was Fido.
Mr. Klein was called from the
barn. Together the man and wife
put Fido through his old paces and
he knew them all. He even ran to
his favorite snoozing spot in the
bedroom and that night snuggled
behind the kitchen range without
hesitation.
Where had Fido been during all
those long years? How had this
old dog remembered everything of
his puppyhood?. Those things go
beyond the realm of human under-
standing.
