The story is narrated from the "point of view" of Allie, the dog and the protagonist. Aileen is misunderstood and experiences the ups and downs of life. She is subjected to suffering and cruelty because of the "shallow belief" of her inferiority amidst humans. The story shows the difference between the inconsiderate nature of humans and loyal nature of dogs. Allie saves her master’s baby from an accident but is misunderstood and beaten up brutally. Even when the misunderstanding gets cleared, she is not praised rather her puppy is killed by the master to prove his opinion on optics to his scientist peers. Indeed, this story evokes too many emotions. It encourages humans to reflect on their actions and have respect for each life.
