White Fang

Mit-sah put Lip-Lip at the front of the team to punish him for his bad behavior. In making him the leader of the pack, Mit-sah took away Lip-Lip's power. Rather than following his lead.... the other dogs persecuted him.

In the past he had observed Lip-lip’s persecution of White Fang; but at that time Lip-lip was another man’s dog, and Mit-sah had never dared more than to shy an occasional stone at him. But now Lip-lip was his dog, and he proceeded to wreak his vengeance on him by putting him at the end of the longest rope. This made Lip-lip the leader, and was apparently an honour! but in reality it took away from him all honour, and instead of being bully and master of the pack, he now found himself hated and persecuted by the pack.
