What would you do if your daughter, off to Mesopotamia on an
archaeological dig for an unspecified period of time, made you
guardian of a tousled, obstinate, intractable dog? Such was the
dilemma of George Preble Watson, a man struggling with the death of
his beloved wife and failing grades in dog deportment. Hoping
somehow that sympathy for his grave-site grieving would make the
animal more tractable, George took the dog on regular visits to the
cemetery. At times as he recounted to the silence all that he and
his wife had shared, he'd be overcome with sobbing while the dog
lay impassive nearby. In more tranquil moments George was quick to
reward the dog's infrequent obedience, but as soon as one prank was
neutralized another was introduced. The resolution of this standoff
is thrown into crisis as both discover that love, even for man and
dog, is a work in progress.
