Summary and Critical Perspective of the Story:

‘All about a dog’ by Gardiner is a story that gives birth to some questions related to our society and social rules and regulations. It was a cold winter night. The passengers were all excited to reach home as early as possible. A young lady carrying a little dog boarded the bus. Immediately, the conductor asked the lady to go up to the uncovered top with the dog.

But the other passengers were quite sympathetic towards the lady with the dog, considering the weather. Moreover, the lady was suffering from cough and cold. So they raised no objection to carrying the dog inside the bus. But the bus conductor could not ignore the rule so easily. He compelled the lady to go to the top of the bus on winter night. Initially the lady was reluctant to do that and persisted on staying inside. She also argued with the conductor.

ALL ABOUT A DOG

 

But the conductor was rigid in his decision. So he stopped the bus in the midway, creating trouble to everyone in the bus. Ultimately the lady had to obey the dictate. Later, when the bus developed some engine trouble, the passengers had to tolerate the delay. But the conductor refused to compromise.

 

All through the journey, the lady had to travel on the top of the bus. At the end, the narrator of the story tried to advise to the conductor that rules should be modified according to the circumstances and should be tempered with goodwill. Rules are formed for comfort but should not cause inconvenience. That is the spirit of a rule. That means, in our society the most needed thing is not the rules and regulations but its application with humanitarian consideration.
