There, lit up in front of them was an image of a puppy behind metal bars in a pen. Many Big Folk passed backwards and forwards but didn’t stop to look in. Then two of them stopped and pointed. The puppy ran up to the bars and barked excitedly. The Big Folk chatted with each other and disappeared.

“Oh, they look a bit like my Big Folk,” said Hamish excitedly.

“Sssh,” said Badger. “concentrate Hamish.”

Hamish fixed his gaze on the cave wall.

Outside the pen, the Big Folk returned with the Dog Catcher. The puppy’s ears pinned back, his tail stopped wagging and he stepped away from the bars. Two huge gloved hands curled around the metal bars, and the puppy cowered in the corner. The Dog Catcher unlocked the cage and lifted the puppy into the arms of the waiting Big Folk.

“He’s been saved,” said Hamish.

There was a crackle on the screen, and now the puppy was alone in a lane— not unlike the lane at the bottom of Hamish’s garden — and his Big Folk were nowhere to be seen. The dog was now being chased by the Dog Catcher.

There was another crackle on the screen and there was a picture of Top Dog.

“Oh,” said Hamish, surprised. “It’s Top Dog! Does Baby Unicorn know him?”

“Baby Unicorn knows everyone and everything.”

“Right. Okay.” Hamish’s tail started to wag.

On the wall they saw Top Dog shivering in a cardboard box, whining for some food and still on the run from the Dog Catcher.

“Oh, he looks so sad and lonely. Why is he living in a box? Why has he got no food? Where are his Big Folk?” asked Hamish.
