STRIDERIt's a rather tense time at the Prancing Pony in Bree, as we learn about Strider, hear news of Gandalf, Black Riders are near, and Merry falls under the Black Breath. Questions to Ponder(please feel free to answer one, all, or none of the questions, they are here to help get you thinking about the chapter)

I'm intrigued about your question regarding the animals. Why do YOU think their reaction is significant? elanor

I'm not sure if I think it is significant. It's just a question. I don't claim to have any of the answers here, I'm just facilitating discussion.

I think the reason Frodo is afraid around Strider at first is the fact that Strider doesn't beat around the bush concerning the danger that Frodo and his friends are in. He also reminds him of just how much is at stake.
Sam's reaction is very just.Just because somebody says he's your friend doesn't mean they are. Sam is quick to forgive and take Strider into his "bosom" elanor

I think the pledge does have one significance, maybe not the most important one. It makes Sam a little more confident in Strider
