"His Dog" by Albert Payson Terhune is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book tells the poignant story of Link Ferris, a lonely farmer struggling to make a living on a poor piece of inherited land, who finds companionship and purpose through his unexpected bond with a wounded collie named Chum. The opening of the narrative introduces Link Ferris, a weary farmer tied to his tough existence in the North Jersey hinterland. One fateful night, while returning from a local tavern, Link discovers the injured collie in a ditch, setting off a transformation not just in the dog’s fortunes but in Link’s life as well. He rescues Chum, and as they recuperate together, a deep friendship blossoms between the two, reshaping Link's solitude into a newfound happiness. The beginning sets the stage for Link’s internal struggles and his burgeoning relationship with the loyal dog, touching on themes of companionship, redemption, and the simple joys of life that can emerge from hardship.
