"Working for Silas Porter (Grocer and Provision Merchant) was no fun. But it was not because he was a bully that his errand-boy Ginger decided to run away. Ginger was not that type of boy. He crept down Silas Porter's stairs one moonlight night, with all his wordly possessions in a rucksack on his back, to save his friend, the Staffordshire terrier Mike, from the threat of being destroyed, and in the hope of exchanging his life as an errand boy for one in which dogs were trusted at their proper worth. So Ginger sets off down the open road and, like all courageous adventurers, has his share of dangers, mishaps, and excitements before his journey ends in the place of his dreams where there are Beagles to be cared for, and the best of homes for Mike."
