A family moved from the city to the suburbs, and were told they ought to get a watchdog to guard their house.
一戶人家從城裡搬到郊區,有人告訴他們應該買一條看門狗來守家。
So they bought the largest dog available from a near-by dealer1.
於是他們就去附近的一個商人那裡買了一條最大的狗。
Shortly afterwards the house was broken into at night by burglars while the dog was asleep. The householder went to the dealer and told him about it.
不久之後,夜賊闖進他們家時那條狗卻一直在睡覺。這家的主人去找那個商人告訴他這件事。
"Well, what you need now," said the dealer, "is a little dog to wake up the dog."
「那麼,」商人說,「你們現在還需要一條小狗來叫醒這條狗。」
