This story, Visitors, imagines that aliens would be taken with our dogs and that those canines would also be interested in the little green men. Perhaps they will return.

bounds towards the aliens barking...should have a comma - aliens, barking
What a great little story. I enjoyed everything about it. Fast moving and enjoyable. Good job.

This is funny. I like that the aliens are so fascinated with the dogs that they ignore the humans. They must have reported back to the folks on their planet that it's a dog's world here on earth. The aliens are so fascinated they want to come back for further study of the dogs. Their superiors don't seem to be buying it, though. The aliens might not be received such an enthusiastic greeting from the earthlings had they been able to see them. Great story. You might consider using action verbs instead of being verbs like is and were. For instance, instead of Alfred is overjoyed, use Alfred enjoys. judi

    Thanks for your suggestions, action verbs would work much better. I have no idea where some of these crazy fantasy stories come from. More to come. Elaine

    You're welcome. Keep up with those stories! It's easy to fall into using lots of being verbs, but action verbs will add more to a story. judi

A very interesting tale about a tail. It seems the main intention of the landing was diverted by the presence of dogs. Who knew? They were surprised and enthralled. Good point.

What an absorbing read, you put the mind of the reader in that of both canine and alien, maybe dogs can see them and that starts the barking, while the aliens would have many questions, very well presented****kahpot

I thought this to be a rather creative and well-written story. Usually, when you read stories about aliens they either plan to take over earth or make a friend with a lonely human.

But the interest in dogs was a different take and I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

All the best
Lisa
