Catcher With a Glass Arm (2009)
“He was kept in their yard most of the time, but sometimes he would leave and roam the neighborhood. His name was Firpo.
“Firpo!” Jody shouted. “Get away from here! Go on home!”
The big dog merely looked at him, then kept barking at Midnight.
Johnny Bartho picked up a large stone and threw it at the dog. It missed Firpo by inches.
“Don’t!” said Jody. “You might hurt him. I’ll get him away from here.”
Cautiously, he started walking toward the big dog.
“Careful, Jody,” warned Rabbit. “He might bite.”
“He’s not dangerous,” said Jody. “I’ve been close to him before.”
Slowly he walked up to the dog, talking softly all the while. “Come here, Firpo. Come here, boy.”
Firpo stopped barking and looked at him. As Jody approached him, Firpo stepped away.
