 Misbehaviour. Kashtanka, a young foxey-looking mongrel, belonging to a carpenter drunkard
named Luka Alexandrovich gets lost through her own 'improper behaviour', frightened by a
military band on the street. Hungry and desperate ("If she had been a human being she
would have certainly thought: 'No, it is impossible to live like this! I must shoot myself!'"),
she huddles up by the entrance to some unfamiliar house.
