Beschrijving
The Split Dog. While chasing a hare, a hunting dog runs through a fence and splits himself into two parts. The hunter puts him back together, but with one pair of legs pointing upward. The dog recovers and learns to run on two legs. When he gets tired, he flips over and runs on the other two legs [X1215.11].
