Detailed explanation-1: -Ans: ‘I’ in the story refers to Mr. Herriot who was a veterinary surgeon. He treated Tricki and helped him regain his health. 4.
Detailed explanation-2: -“I think I know a cure for you.” What was the ‘cure’? Ans: It was the cure to control Tricki’s diet. He did not give any food to Tricki for two days.
Detailed explanation-3: -Expert-Verified Answer "I”, here, refers to Mr. Herriot. He narrates this because he is a vet doctor and knows how to treat a dog. He brought Tricki to the hospital with him and gave him the same treatment he gave to other dogs, as well as the necessary exercise to keep him active.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer: This line means that-although, Tricki had barely any vigour or life left in him, Mr. Herriot still believed that he knew a cure for him. He was determined to improve Tricki’s condition.
Detailed explanation-5: -Answer: Dr. Herriot did not indulge Tricki with unnecessary food items, rather treated him like an overweight and lazy dog which needed sufficient exercise with a controlled diet. He cut down his food intake and kept him under strict observation for the first few days.
