Animals have different types of families like we do.
In swan families, both parents care for their babies. Swan babies can’t fly
for a few months. So, their parents sometimes carry them on their backs.

In cheetah families, the mothers raise their cubs alone. Cheetah cubs’
eyes don’t open for almost two weeks. So, their mothers help them a lot! Later,

they also teach them to hunt.
In seahorse families, the fathers take care of the eggs. They keep them in

special pouches. The eggs become healthy babies thanks to them.

These animal families are different. But all the parents love their babies.

Bobbie the dog loved his human family very much. He always wanted to be
with them.
In 1923, Bobbie and his family went on a trip to Indiana. At a gas station,
some other dogs chased Bobbie away. Bobbie’s family looked everywhere, but they
couldn’t find him. They returned sadly to their home in Oregon.
Six months later, they were surprised. Bobbie appeared in their town! His feet
were worn and tired. Later, many people said they saw Bobbie in other cities. He
walked over 4,500 kilometers for six months to get home.
Everyone was amazed. They started calling him “Bobbie the Wonder Dog”!
