Once upon a time, there lived a dog on a farm who didn’t feel very useful at all. The cows give milk, the sheep provides wool, and the chickens supplies eggs. What is the job of the dog on the farm? He envied the other animals on the farm and one day decides to be like them, to hilarious results. Can a dog’s value be measured by its ability to lay eggs or to provide milk?
Adapted from the story of the same title by Daniel Hinds, The Dog Who Wasn't Useful is a funny and interactive tale about one’s journey in discovering their gift, and a reminder that we are all unique and “useful” in our own ways.
Come and be a part of the farm with the dog and his friends!
