- One winter night, My father and his brother, were driving out the cows. My father went in front of the cows to open the gate. Just as he was going to open the gate, he saw beside him, a jet black dog. The night was very dark, But there was such a shine the dog, that he easily saw him.
My father put his hand on the dog, and he disappeared. When they had driven in the cows into the field, they saw the dog in front of the gate again. My father said to my brother, "do you see the dog, but he didnt see any dog there at all.
