- Buttons + Boots · 3 pages
Buttons ran away from Bulldog not because he's a coward (he's not), but because he's so small. Boots often saved Buttons. Word was Buttons was a coward, a discredit to dogs. The dogs shunned him. Boots disappeared. One day Buttons heard Boots, ran to see; he saw her curled around her kittens as Bulldog attacked. Buttons charged. Bulldog ran away. Buttons was a hero. He was nursemaid to the kittens, who loved him as much as they did their mother. Buttons' being known for a courageous heart was due to the kittens, so you can't blame him for taking such good care of them, can you?
