The Tale of a Lonesome Dog (1914)
Lady, the family pet, is left alone while the family is riding. Lady discovers that her master has carelessly left the door of the house unlocked. Realizing her responsibility, she determines to guard the house well. And it was well, for the thieving chauffeur, just before leaving, tipped his pal, a crook, off regarding the unlocked door. He failed to think of Lady, however. When the crook appeared and commenced to ransack the house, Lady took down the telephone receiver and by barking, aroused the neighborhood. Then she went after the intruder; she pounced upon him and a struggle followed. Neighbors came running toward the house. A policeman was warned. The thief, in the meantime, had about succeeded in breaking away from Lady. As he was climbing out the back window, the policeman captured him. The family return at this point. Both master and mistress realize what Lady has done. Knowing that Lady has been lonesome, they reward her by purchasing a fine big collie as a mate for her.
