　　'Why, there's a dog!' And on the threshold of the door appeared agreat deer-hound, standing1 motionless, with his eyes fixed2 on Dan.
 
　　'Hallo, old boy! Couldn't you wait till I came for you? Have you cutaway on the sly? Own up now, and take your whipping like a man,' saidDan, rising to meet the dog, who reared on his hind3 legs to look hismaster in the face and bark as if uttering an indignant denial of anydisobedience.
 
　　'All right; Don never lies.' And Dan gave the tall beast a hug,adding as he glanced out of the window, where a man and horse wereseen approaching:
 
　　'I left my plunder4 at the hotel over night, not knowing how I shouldfind you. Come out and see Octoo, my mustang; she's a beauty.' AndDan was off, with the family streaming after him, to welcome thenewcomer.
 
　　They found her preparing to go up the steps in her eagerness to reachher master, to the great dismay of the man, who was holding her back.
 
　　'Let her come,' called Dan; 'she climbs like a cat and jumps like adeer. Well, my girl, do you want a gallop5?' he asked, as the prettycreature clattered6 up to him and whinnied with pleasure as he rubbedher nose and slapped her glossy7 flank.
 
　　'That's what I call a horse worth having,' said Ted8, full ofadmiration and delight; for he was to have the care of her duringDan's absence.
 
　　'What intelligent eyes! She looks as if she would speak,' said Mrs Jo.
 
　　'She talks like a human in her way. Very little that she don't know.
