This seventy-five-word story, Rumble to the Rescue, has the proper set up and gives the readers a happy outcome to a desperate scene. Nice.

A good twist. It almost seemed a part of a chapter, or the ending of.
I like when an author pushes the reader to think. Even with just a few words.
Bravo.
Well thought through.
Best wishes.

Thanks for taking the time to review Rumble to the Rescue. Rumble has turned into a bit of a hero. Perhaps a treat of biscuits would be enough reward.
Take care and have a great day.
Regards
Barry .
Comment from Anne Johnston
Great entry for this contest. Short but tells a good story. For a person to desire to take their life must mean they have no hope of things ever getting better. Thankfully, the guy's dog loved him enough to make a way for him to change his mind.

I would say that Rumble earned a tasty dog bone, a nice cold drink of water in his favorite dish, and a chance to sleep on the master's bed. He should also get to take his walk whenever he is ready to do so. Get that dog a Life Saver badge.

Guardian angels appear sometimes in the least expected disguise, such as Rumble. You told this story in its entirety with very few words. Outstanding. Good luck in the contest.

I enjoyed reading your contest entry. I happen to believe that in situations like this God puts something in our path that prohibits us from carrying our our original plans. Thank you for sharing this entry with us and good luck.

A masterful way to pack a huge story into a few words. The presentation is smooth and realistic--and Rumble is most certainly its hero. Nicely done.

This may be a winner. Gripping beginning--Stunning ending. You used your allotment well. Vivid imagery of scene and his final thoughts before the plunge. Spot on at 75 words.

Elizabeth,
Once again thank you for taking time to review my entry. The scenario just fitted in so neatly to this type of contest. Please take care and have a good day.
Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
Very good story in so few words. The title didn't really give the point away until the end. The short sentences in paragraph one indicate a mind with a lot of stress. The second paragraph was all about relief. He couldn't abandon Rumble. Best of luck in the flash fiction contest.

Carol,
Thanks for taking the time to review my entry . I see in your photo that you have a dog as well. Probably not named Rumble but just as loving.
Anyway have a great day and take care
Cheers
