Synopsis

Brutus always glanced into human eyes only for a moment and immediately turned away so as not to see a change, to keep what he was given and carry away what he received. Nobody knows better than dogs how fast people’s affections can change. “It is a pity that we, the dogs, we cannot talk about anything with people, otherwise we would teach them to recognize the smell of good and evil”.
