Item Summary

A boy taunts a dog with a stick, and the dog responds by biting down on the boy's nose. The boy tries to pull away, but the dog holds tight, and the boy's nose is stretched to unimaginable dimensions. After a few unfortunate incidents, a woodsman comes by and chops the boy's nose down to its normal length.
