Question

0Rex was as powerful as a wrestler, and there were not many thngs that he couldn't manage somehow to get hold of with his great jaws and lift or drag to wherever he wanted to put them, or wherever we wanted them put. He would catch the rail at the balance and lift it clear of the ground and trot with great confidence toward the gate. Of course, since that gate was only four feet wide or so, he couldn't 00bring the rail in boardside00. He found that out when he got a few terrific jolts, but he wouldn't give up. He finally figured out how to do it, by dragging the rail, holding onto one end, growling. He got a great 00wagging satisfaction00 out of his work.02br02br00could anyone explain the highlighted words?0-
