Running Away From Problems...



Becky chose to runaway from Craig and her mother in order to "save" Brighteyes.  She had to endure all sorts of hardships, and, in the end, found herself in hostpital and seriously injured.  She was lucky that Brighteyes was "adopted" by another, kind, person; it could have been far worse. 

  • What other realistic and safer alternatives could Becky have chosen instead of running away to save Brighteyes? 
  • How else could she have stopped Craig from having his dogs picked up by the grey Land Rover and "taken away"?

  1. Becky could have confronted Craig or told her mother.
    Becky could have gone for a ride with bright eyes when the land rover came to avoid bright eyes getting picked up or told her mother what actually happens in front of Craig.

  2. 1.Instead of Becky running away to “save” Brighteyes, she could have told her mom to divorce Craig and move away or tell the police that Craig has someone taking the dogs that can’t run and having them getting killed by the guy that comes to pick up the dogs or giving Brighteyes away.
    2.Telling the police that that guy is taking the dogs and shooting them to death
    and also telling them that Craig lied to Becky and her mother saying that the dogs go to a good home.

  3. Instead of running away to try to save Brighteyes Becky could have told her mom about what really happened to the dogs after they couldn't race any more.

  4. 1. She should have stayed at her house and talked to her mom about it and then just ignore Craig.
    2. She should have said to Craig that she wants the dog a lot and is not a dog that should be shooted or killed.

  5. Said to Craig don’t kill bright eyes I love him so much I will do anything for bright eyes to stay with me or she could have told her mom what really happened to the dog when they cant race. She could have taken the dogs and hid them from Craig so they would have not been killed by the land rover.

  6. She could have talked to Craig and her mother. Or she could have not let Craig do what he did with the other dogs.
    She could have hid the dog in her room and then talked to her mother about talking to Craig.

    She should tell Craig that we could keep him as a pet.

  11. 1. Instead of Becky running away, she could have just come clean to Craig and told him how she felt.
    2. Becky could have threatened him that she would run away but not actually run away instead of actually running away.

  14. 1. Becky doesn’t like Craig because he only races the dogs to get the trophies and the money. Becky could have taken a whole bunch of food and water and locked herself in her room with brighteyes.
    2. I think Becky could have ran after the truck or rode her bike and followed the truck and then when she got to that farm place and taken alphie .

  16. 1. Becky could have told her mom what happened to the other dogs and tell her mom she wasn’t going to live with him so they move out and Craig leaves.
    2. She could give the dog to a “Grandpa “or she could have taken the dog to a good home.

  18. She could have brought Brighteyes to a Shelter or a family. She could’ve did the same with the dogs.

  20. 1. Instead of running away with brighteyes Becky could of put brighteyes in the SPCA or maybe of sold him to a nice person.
    2. Another way Becky could of stopped the dogs from getting taken away is by calling the police or taking them to the SPCA.

  21. Becky could’ve just told her mum that she hated being there so then she would take Brighteyes in the car with her mum and run away.
    Becky could’ve found out where the dogs went then she could pop all of the tires so the Land Rover wouldn’t be able to take any more dogs.
