Journal 28: Great, Old Knowledge

In the story "the trouble", Gary Paulsen said that the dogs have the "lost knowledge" that human doesn't have. I believe this knowledge is the ability to work together and the feeling for others. In the story, Gary was injured and trapped in the snowy and freezing weather. He had been thrown out of the sled and he believed that his dogs have gone away. After realizing the dogs have came back to save him, he found out that the dogs have the ability to work with others and feeling for others. The dogs had worked together to save Gary. I think this is the long lost knowledge that people have lost. People now days mostly think only about themselves. They won't risk anything at all. A lot of people now days can't work together because they do things only for themselves. I think these are the things that people have lost.
