A kind old man and woman were blessed with a little white dog they named “Shiro”. They raised Shiro with great love and affection. One day, Shiro, who had grown quite large, asked the old man to sit on his back. Leading him to a field, he said to the old man, “Dig here! Bow-wow! Dig here!” The old man dug and dug only to be astounded by his findings. What fate awaits the old man, the old woman and Shiro?
