"Dans la banlieue de Paris vivait une famille de bourgeois riches. Ils habitaient une élégante villa au milieu d'un parc, au bord de la Seine. Le cocher était ce François, gars de campagne, un peu lourdaud, bon cœur, niais, facile à duper. Comme il rentrait un soir chez ses maîtres, un chien se mit à le suivre. Il n'y prit point garde d'abord ; mais l'obstination de la bête à marcher sur ses talons le fit bientôt se retourner. Il regarda s'il connaissait ce chien. Non, il ne l'avait jamais vu. C'était une chienne d'une maigreur affreuse, avec de grandes mamelles pendantes."
