Chapter Summaries & Analyses
The people who hit them, the Becker family, take Squirrel and Moon to the local vet clinic. Dr. Roth, the vet, confirms that Moon is dead. She slides Squirrel onto a table and inspects her.
After Squirrel has x-rays, the vet explains that Squirrel has a badly broken leg. In addition, she has fleas and has tartar on her teeth. The family doesn’t want to pay for Squirrel’s medical treatment, but Dr. Roth donates her time and uses a charity organization.
Over multiple days, Dr. Roth repairs Squirrel’s leg and spays her so that she can’t have puppies. Slowly, the people at the clinic coax her to walk. Dr. Roth and Rachael, her assistant, treat Squirrel with love. Squirrel wears a cast on her leg and a protective collar for a while.
After she’s better, the Becker family returns and adopts her. On the car ride to their house, the children, Donald and Margery, name her Daisy. They mention previous summer dogs.
At the Becker’s house, “Daisy” (Squirrel) lives in the garage. The family gives her a pet bed and chew toys to use in the garage, but she can also go outside to their large yard.
