Looking for Tula

This story is narrated by Rocky, a dog. He tells the tale of how his best friend Tula was lost and finally found due to his intuitive thinking. One night, frightened by fireworks, Tula scrambled over the fence in their family's backyard and dashed away. Rocky and the family spent many days looking for her, putting up posters and asking all over the neighborhood, but Tula was nowhere to be found. The problem was that they had only recently moved from Santa Fe to Miami Beach and Tula did not know the geography. When days of chasing down leads did not bring Tula home, Rocky had an idea. He suggested cutting up Tula's blanket and tying the pieces to bench legs and lamp posts so Tula could smell the trail home. Did Rocky's plan work?
