“Woody, Chloe, come back immediately,” Pa and Lauren screamed. Obeying, we returned to Pa and Farmer Lauren. 
“Oh, doggies,” Pa said, wiping sweat from his brow, “you two sure gave us a scare!”
“I’m sorry,” I said. “We only wanted to introduce ourselves to the dogs in the field.”
“We know,” Farmer Lauren replied. “That’s why we screamed. You took off before we could warn you about the dogs.”
“Warn us? Oh, no! Do those dogs have rabies?” I asked, making Pa laugh.

Through obstacle courses and other bicycle riding activities, Mr. Beckhart has been teaching bicycle safety for 15 years.
