Ciao mystery poet, you now have three votes.
It was hard to choose but ultimately Nellie's story won my vote.
It was a delightful story.
I'm glad that she got to live her last years in a loving family.
So many pets end up at a shelter when their elderly owners die.
Dogs are beautiful creatures , they have the power to draw people together.
Prickles are nasty buggers. I had a cross between a collie and a German Shepherd
and two Afghans .. prickles were a constant issue, they can cause infections.
PS: you could have used a shopping trolley to take her home.

This is a heartwarming story -fits right into the Feel Good Story category- dogs are so significant in our lives. not just the lives of their owners but almost the lives of any person that they touch- thanks for restoring our Faith in humanity.

I admire you for adopting and caring for an older dog. I enjoyed your description of Nellie and your walks in the park with her. Your story was not only a feel good story, you put the reader in the story and it became a heartwarming story. I wish you the best in the contest.

Hi
This looks like a good entry for the contest. Good luck with that.
Wow. I'm sorry for your loss of Nelly or whatever her real name is. But it sounds like she lived a good life.
I looked up what a prickle was, but it sounds like it's another name for a thorn
That was pretty clever of Nelly to keep putting that paw in your hand the one that hurt
She sounds like she was a great dog and you captured this moment very well in your entry and it's definitely a feel good good story
I enjoyed reading your story
Good job. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks so much for reviewing. Much appreciated. A prickle is picked up from grass, and is different from a thorn but just as sharp. Glad you enjoyed the story.

I love this, particularly since we've owned many pets, five of them dogs, they all loved a walk, but towards the end, less and less, we had known Them from puppyhood, so we'd been with them for many seasons. This a beautiful story, well done, blessings Roy

Comment from Patty Mazzurco
Your paragraph beautifully narrates a touching moment of connection and community. You start by setting a reflective tone on the nature of feel-good stories, seamlessly leading into a poignant personal experience with your dog, Nellie. The detailed account of Nellie's distress and the eventual relief you feel, supported by the compassion of passersby, really brings the scene to life. The description of the crowd's reaction and your emotions adds a heartfelt depth to the story.

What a touching and heartwarming story! Your writing beautifully shares the kindness we have for dogs as well as the deep bond we share with our pets. Nellie's gentle spirit and the everyones concern for her well being was wonderful to read. It's these small moments that remind us of what is important in life. Thank you for sharing such an uplifting tale.
