A big head popped up in front of him. Two dark eyes.

“No! Trigger! Go back to sleep!” Evan pleaded in his little mouse voice. “No! Trigger—down!”

Evan’s squeaks had awakened the cocker spaniel.

Evan felt the dog’s hot breath blow across his face.

“Yuck! Dog breath!” he squeaked.

Then he felt sharp teeth close around his waist. Felt himself tilted sideways. Felt the hot, wet saliva of Trigger’s mouth as the dog secured Evan between its teeth.

“Trigger—down! Put me down!” Evan begged.

He was bounced hard now. The dog teeth tightened their grip.

“Trigger! Put me down! Where are you taking me?”

Through the dark hallway. The hot breath blowing over Evan’s helpless body.

Into his parents’ room. Evan gazed up to see his mom and dad getting ready for bed.

Mr. Ross leaned over the dog. “What have you got there, Trigger? Did you find a bone?”

“Uh … Dad? Dad?” Evan squeaked up at him. “Dad? It’s me? Do you see me? Dad? Uh … I think we have a little problem!”
