 What did the dog do to lead the farmer to the hidden gold?  

Answer:

The dog put his paws against the farmer's legs and motioned with his head to some spot behind. When the farmer didn't pay attention the dog began whining and running to and fro. Finally he followed the dog a few yards to a place where the animal began a lively scratching. The farmer dug the ground and found a heap of gold.
