Once upon a time, there was a curious and adventurous little rodent named Roddy. Roddy lived in a world where all rodents were trained to be handlers of some kind. Roddy wanted to be the best handler of all, so he decided to take a train to the rodent training program.

When Roddy arrived at the program, he was introduced to the art of detecting things. Roddy learned how to sniff out anything from food to danger and how to inspect everything thoroughly. He quickly became the star pupil of the program.

One day, Roddy was on a mission to detect an alert that had been received about a lost treasure. He sniffed and inspected his way through the forest, using all the skills he had learned in the program. Suddenly, he stumbled upon a shiny object!

Roddy was so excited, he started to dance and sing, "I found it! I found it!" But then he remembered his training and decided to inspect it more closely. As he got closer, he realized that it was just a discarded soda can.

Roddy laughed at himself and said, "Well, I guess I'm not the best handler after all." But he still felt proud of himself for following his training and inspecting the object properly.

From that day on, Roddy continued to use his skills to help others and have many more exciting adventures. The end.
