                      Vango, a three-year-old dog, belongs to Mr. White. Every evening Mr. White takes him
                      for a walk.


                      One  Tuesday evening they started out on their walk as usual. After a while  Vango
                      wandered off by  himself. Mr. White  was not  very worried, for  he  knew that Vango
                      could find his way back home. However soon it was night and still there was no sign
                      of Vango. “Something must have happened to him.” Mr. White thought, and he sent his
                      servant out to search for the dog.


                      The servant went round the whole neighborhood calling for Vango, but he was not able
                      to find the dog.


                      They did not know that Vango was trapped on a cliff at Youth Park. Earlier he had
                      slipped and fallen down the twenty-meter high cliff. He got wedged in a crack and was
                      unable to move. The dog barked to attract attention, but no one heard him.


                      Mr. White did not receive news of his pet until Friday afternoon. “My gardener told
                      me he heard that a dog was trapped on a cliff at Youth Park.” he said. “I went there at
                      once and saw poor Vango on the cliff. I telephoned the fire-brigade. They were unable
                      to rescue Vango as it was already dark.”


                      The next morning some firemen managed to pull the dog up with the help of ropes.
                      Vango was very weak after his experience and no wonder! For three days he had no
                      food, water or shelter. However, he managed to bark his thanks to his rescuers.


                      Mr. White was very glad to have his pet back. “In the future I’ll make sure I keep an
                      eye on Vango when we go for our evening strolls.” he said.
