The old man grinned and winked at the boy, saying, ‘That ol’ hound can hear music better than most humans!’ From then on, whenever someone brought their car to Sid Dillon’s, they’d leave hearing unexpected tunes—whether it was from the radio or just good ol’ Sid humming along.

The wrench appeared right next to him. ‘Gotta keep my skills sharp,’ he winked, as the driver drove off whistling.
