Thanks for stopping by.

Bravo!!
So this is the country I bled for. My pride has somehow withered into disgust.

There is no place in this society for such misguided and gutless acts of hatred by today's youth. This punk was 20 years old. We have become the laughing stock of the world because of it. Mainstream media, the entertainment industry, and secondary education need to take a step back and take note of the monster they have created. I'm glad I'm old, because I can't take much more of this nonsense! more »

You're too kind Steve. You have no reason to be humble.

With grief comes inspiration. You found a wonderful way to put it to good use. Congrats

This is a really nice piece, Sue, but I think you're starting to show off too much!

I knew you wrote this one! Good job as usual

This has a familiar theme that is hard for a vet to resist.

That's so true Susie. To take the story a little further, the owner's wife trained these dogs to be therapy dogs. His name was Reggie and we were fast and furious friends!

Congrats! This is a really good story. Well done indeed.

Congrats! Good story. You will forever be remembered as the inaugural winner of this website.

It's ironic that you write a short story that I end up voting for. There has to be some kind of cosmic force that links us. I thought you should have won something other than a cup. In the meantime, you should know I had a connection to a Burnese Mountain dog as well that belonged to a shop owner in Door County WI. I used to sneak him beef jerky's when the owner wasn't looking. HA! more »

As an avid fisherman, I can relate to this story. I too spent time fishing with my dad. This brought back great memories.

I don't know if you ever received my last 2 responses. I'm not very savvy with technical crap. I hope you are well and I really miss you
