Hey Ma,

Your Big Dawg has been playing Sherlock Holmes here. Rescued Mayor Milo’s frisbee from a cheeky retriever down at Poodle Pier. Victory cheeseburgers at Fetch-N-Bites tasted all the sweeter. Sherlock Khan, your pet detective, on duty!

Love,
Khan Boy

Listen to the story here

Friend, I ain’t lying when I say, ’twas a wonder I nearly ruffled my tail feathers off upon hearing about the exploits of our gallant guardian, Khan. Now this here, ain’t just the day-to-day antics of a regular Spencerville resident, but something more enthusing spiraled around his courage and intelligence. A tale marking Khan as our very own pet detective!

One particular event, I reckon, started off at the bustling Boxer Beach where the dogs jousted, cheeseburgers savored from the Fetch-N-Bites spread across the sand. Khan ain’t an ordinary sun-bather, his mind is always afoot, his blue-grey eyes taking in each detail. His Tuff tire toy often acting as a deductive partner. He sniffs troubles out like a prowling coyote sniffing out a campfire.

One bright day, Mayor Milo’s renowned frisbee had gone missing from the beach. A pandemonium it was, causing a ruckus among the sun-bathers and swimmer alike. Now Khan, being Khan, took to the task like fish to the water, the whole affair tickling his detective’s instincts.

He swarmed through the place, his nose brushing the sand, his paws kneading the grounds, and his ears perked against the whispering beach waves. After a good hour’s gaze into Bulldog Bay, you can see a certain recognition flashed in his eyes. Now, the only thing connecting Boxer Beach to Bulldog Bay is Poodle Pier, the most gambol-filled route. And Khan had a hunch or two about them frolicking Frisbee flingers.

Friend, I ain’t imposing, but is it a mere notion to believe Khan’s mind could make beelines like a train chugging on its track? Navigating his speculations, we found ourselves briskly walking towards Poodle Pier. He sniffed across the path, down to the last wooden plank. Not a whisper of a scent or sight of the frisbee, but his calm gaze saw something more.

There was the real thief, slouched in front of Waggle ‘n’ Wok, shamelessly licking its paws, a golden retriever, its eyes oblivious to the ruckus it reckoned. Nestled on the sides of the retriever was Mayor Milo’s prized frisbee! With a customary pit bull stance and a sharp bark, Khan had the retriever whine in confession, its tail tucked in guilt.

Ain’t it a joyous event when the burgled frisbee was safely returned to Mayor Milo as the entire Spencerville rejoiced in their gallant guardian’s triumph? Once again, victory was tasted over cheeseburgers at Fetch-N-Bites, a celebration marking Khan’s deductive prowess.

It ain’t the first tale of Khan, our courageous pet detective, and it certainly ain’t the last. His intelligence, loyalty, and the sheer love for his fellow beings make him more than just a dog; Khan is indeed the heart and soul of Spencerville.

The End.
