Detailed explanation-1: -Why did Herriot dodge Mrs. Pumphrey’s questions? Mr Herriot thought it wasn’t necessary to answer questions about whether Tricki’s cushions were being turned or not.
Detailed explanation-2: -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.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mr Herriot hospitalised Tricki for a fortnight and kept him on strict diet. By giving him a lot of water he was able to make Tricki active and energetic once again. Thus, he was able to save him from any kind of surgery or medicinal treatment. “I think I know a cure for you.”
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer: Dr. James Herriot did not keep Tricki for a long time, because he realised that Ms. Pumphrey was like a mother to Tricki, and keeping a mother and a child should not be separated from each other just because of one’s greed.
