Book excerpt: "Joseph is a three-logged German Shepherd dog. At the end of the story, Joseph saves Benjamin from drowning in a river and is adopted by the grateful and delighted little boy. But before Joseph gets to that point, he discovers that he was born with a short, deformed leg, and must go through ""physical therapy"" to learn how to walk.
