Jokko the Versatile Dog Delivers a Love Story
A tale adapted from Pearson's Weekly recounts a comic sequence in which a gentleman buys a gem for Elsie, loses it to Jokko the dog who swallows it, and in a dramatic twist the dog is replaced by a near identical mate. The plan succeeds as Elsie accepts the suitor after a chase, paintwork on the dog’s leg and a playful ruse, culminating in Jokko producing four puppies three weeks later.
