Yes, I really would like to peek inside your brain to see how it all works. Maybe if I got a pair of those xray glasses from the back of a comic I could see inside. Just a thought. Karen

This work has reached the exceptional level

Tom,

This is a exceptional entry in the The Gift of Gab contest. Your second place confirms this is a truly creative and well thought out write. To gift your four-legged friend Buddy an English Sheepdog with the gift of Gab with British words is simply brilliant.

All the best,

Eugene

    I was surprised not to find more entries to this contest which seemed to be creative. Besides, it gave me a chance to revisit the memories of my best pal, who I still sense staring at me some mornings. Thank you for the read and review.

So, at the end of this push-pull struggle to get the owner out of bed and allowing access to the roses, I am left with the picture of a ravaged dog cooling her bum on the bakery walkway.

Oh if only dogs could talk their owners lives would be so much easier. Your writing is brilliant this is exactly how it is when you're a dog owner. No such thing as a lie in. 'I guess my bowels are as twisted as your knickers' that's hilarious. Buddy was a handsome dude.
All the best.
Jill:)

    Yep, handsome, and demanding. It was either his way or the highway, and I almost got run over when I tried it my way, so a condescended to his demands. Thank you.

A neat little script here in which you convey the urgency of Bud's demands and threats well. I enjoyed the British vocab and the rain which made me feel very much at home. Not sure about the spelling for 'tea' though. An excellent assortment of humorous references that kept me smiling throughout. Small edit: If you propose (what?) I do to her...
A strong contender! Good luck! Debbie

    I feel if I appreciate you for the second time that we should make a DOUBLEMINT commercial. :-)

Your story reminds me of when a dog wakes up and must go potty and there is no way a person wants to get up at that time of day. I have found out from your story that bathroom duties cannot wait.

An excellent entry for the Gift of Gab writing prompt. Anyone who says dogs can't speak, has never had a pet. I get more out of a conversation with a dog that with most people these days. Nicely written. Good luck in the contest,

    I always believe for those that enjoy java (the drink, not the country) though the country is nice too, they should be reading me as they do.

Hi Mystery Writer. What a fun story about your dog, who can talk, and does so, pretty much in a way a dog would if he could. Clever, funny, and unique. Best of luck in the contest,
Rhonda

    I'd give my name away but that may have me DQ'd. But I am the author of the novelettes titled Demented Thoughts, not that that helps, right?

    I suppose I will find out soon enough.
