Quote
| - This is my family. The Rancher. Sundance and Zorro and Belle. Whatever else they are, they're my Pack.
- When [Dog] followed the longpaw out into the meadow for his training, it was as if they'd been working together for many moons instead of just one. The Rancher gave a command, and Dog's body obeyed it.
- Would it be so bad to work for the Rancher, to do his bidding and hear his voice praise Dog for a job well done? To be appreciated by a strong Alpha? I'd like to please the Rancher.
- [The Rancher's eyes] were crinkled in the longpaw's sun-beaten skin, and there was a sharp intelligent light in them. Dog's hide tightened and his leg muscles shivered. Something about the Rancher told him that escape from this place was not going to be easy.
- The Rancher is your Alpha now, Wolf. Just accept that, and do as he tells you. The sooner you learn it, the sooner the collar will stop squeezing you.
- And it was strange, but somewhere deep in his bones he began to feel a tug at the sound of the Rancher's voice. He struggled against the urge to respond, desperately trying to resist, to remind himself that he was a wild wolf... but without disobeying so that the Rancher would use the squeeze collar or give him another sharp tap across the muzzle with his stick.
- [The barn door] wasn't latched or locked; the Rancher knew his dogs would never run away. He was their Alpha, wasn't he?
- It was the Rancher who brought you in. He's the one who put the collar on you. And he must have a reason, because the Rancher doesn't keep anything he doesn't have a use for.
- I won't take his stinking rewards. I hate him, and I hate his Fangs.
- It was obvious to Dog that [the Fierce Dogs] really did see the Rancher as their Alpha. At the first sound of his voice, each dog would leap to obey, and when they'd done what he asked, he gave them a something fine-smelling from a pouch at his side.
