[[File:3774.jpg|left]]Puzzle the Donkey and [[Shift]] the Ape are friends in name, but Puzzle is really more like [[Shift]]'s personal slave. One day while walking by the Cauldron Pool, [[Shift]] spots a yellow thing caught under the waterfall and makes Puzzle jump in to retrieve it. After Puzzle drags it out of the pool, they discover it is a lion's skin. [[Shift]] sews it up and makes Puzzle wear it, parading him around as [[Aslan]] returned to Narnia. Though Puzzle believes this is wrong, [[Shift]] manages to outwit him and convince him that it is what the true [[Aslan]] wants. Puzzle, as usual, gets the unpleasant part of the arrangement. While [[Shift]] is pretending to be the "mouth of [[Aslan]]," Puzzle is shut up in the stable and only allowed to come out at night for a very short time so that the Narnians can see him. He unhappily remains there until [[Jill Pole]] sneaks into the stable, discovers him, and steals him away. Puzzle realizes the gravity of what he has done when [[Jill Pole|Jill]] brings him to [[Tirian]], [[Eustace Clarence Scrubb|Eustace]], and [[Jewel]]. Later Puzzle meets a band of dwarfs who refuse to believe in [[Aslan]] ever again after seeing Puzzle in the misfitting lion's skin. [[Tirian]] decides to show Puzzle, complete with lion's skin, to the Narnians to prove to them that [[Shift]] has been lying. But when they approach the stable, they hear [[Shift]] declaring that it was all Puzzle's fault and that Puzzle was the deceiver who had lied to the Narnians. After hearing this, [[Jill Pole|Jill]] cuts the lion's skin off Puzzle. During the ensuing battle, Puzzle goes missing and is not seen again until they are in Aslan's country running "further up and further in." Puzzle is terrified at the prospect of meeting the true [[Aslan]]. When he does meet the great Lion, his ears droop, but then perk up again. No one hears what [[Aslan]] says to Puzzle, for no one is ever told any story but his own.

It is possible that Lewis used A. A. Milne's character Eeyore (from the Winnie-the-Pooh series) as the model for Puzzle.
