A stock plot about pet ownership. In the first act, we meet Alice and her dog Tropey. Tropey is a good boy, though he does have a few bad habits and obvious flaws. Alice often finds it difficult to be patient with him, and eventually there comes a breaking point when she loses her temper and sends Tropey away. In the second act, sad Tropey is all alone while Alice is happily playing with Fido, a new dog without Tropey's flaws. But in the third act, Alice falls into danger. She cries for help, and it is Tropey who comes to her rescue. All is forgiven, and everyone learns the valuable lesson that pets enrich their owner's lives in a way that more than compensates for the times when they're an inconvenience. Bonus points if Tropey comes to the rescue while Fido runs away or does nothing, or if the habit of Tropey's that annoyed her so much is the very skill that saves her. Compare with Timmy in a Well, Androcles' Lion, and Tropey, Come Home. |

Dragon Quest VII: The village of Nottagen features a variant with Buddy, a man who has exotic tastes in pets. Namely, monsters. After his first pet Rocky blows himself up to protect him, Buddy adopts a larval Worm of Woe whom he names Wiggles, much to the dismay of the other villagers. Said villagers pressure the party to help them kill the beast; if you refuse and warn Buddy, he tries to Shoo the Dog, only for Wiggles to return in Nottagen's time of need. Alternatively, killing Wiggles yourself ensures that Buddy is the Sole Survivor. | |

There was a Goof Troop comic in Disney Adventures in which Pete replaces his dog with a cardboard robot guard dog after their house gets robbed. Turns out "Card" is actually programmed to let its creator in to rob the house again. | |
