The girl released the head and the little animal trotted away.
Without waiting for answer, he turned and trotted away along the gully.
He thought a moment, then trotted away over the edge of the little valley.
The dog lowered his head and started to trot away.
Instead, he turned and trotted away, holding his head down low.
He turned, trotting away toward the door that the woman had disappeared through.
He watched them spread out and go trotting away after the leaders.
Then he trotted away down the escarpment wall without looking back.
With that he wheeled and trotted away, not looking back.
The boys watched with great amusement, then began trotting away.
