Green Fairy Dog

Legend from the Cairngorms. A strange dog seeks shelter in a shepherd's hut one night: she has green fur, red ears and gold eyes. The shepherd knows it's a fairy dog, but shelters her anyway. She disappears in the morning.

The next winter all the sheep get snowed in. As the shepherd struggles to dig them out, suddenly a pack of green dogs appear, and help him rescue the sheep.
