Although the plot line is basically the same, there are two versions of this story with reference to the ending: The version entitled “Jupiter” [in English and in German] has a happy ending in which the dog, Jupiter, saves the child from the canal. On the other hand, the version entitled "War er es?" [or "Seria ele?" in Portuguese] has a sad ending in which the dog, Ponto, driven by envy and hatred, pushes the baby carriage into the canal
