Later, on a drunken spree, Peter is attacked by robbers, but the dog comes to his rescue and frightens the assailants away.

When Peter enters the dog in a show, another exhibitor proves to be its owner, and Peter is first parted from, then reunited with, "his" dog. Dorcas overcomes her fear and is united with Peter.
