") What a fun time! I hope you videoed this day! Someday, like a child, Harley will be older and you would cherish seeing him little again? I bet you had a mess of shredded paper to pick up too! But worth it all!! Good writing Patty, Harley is a little "star" ") Susan

    Shredded paper, had to keep gifts away from him, and he had an absolute blast! We all did, too and agreed that when grandbabies finally come, it will be much the same. ~patty~

    Thank you for continuing to read Harley's saga. I'm so glad he is here - usually after a nice family weekend, I would spiral down into depression, but Harley's presence and his needs kept me on track this week, and I'm doing well. Writing, eating, and I've even started an exercise program! He truly is a blessing. Thank you for liking my photo - that is how Harley and I can usually be found. ~patty~

    Thank you so much for following Harley's saga. As I write, he is here with me in the den, so I'm reading him 'his reviews.' You can almost see his doggy smile! ~patty~

Wonderful and crative work. I love the flow and temp and the easy way that the narative caries the reader on a journey that leaves us in a place where only poets go.

What a good idea to write from a doggie point of view. He gives the story a whole different perspective from how a human would describe the goings on. I thoroughly enjoyed this story (it is prose isn't it, even though I found it in the poetry section?) and look forward to more.

This is just exquisite. I loved every singe word. You tell the story of Harley's Christmas with such simplicity yet such love! It almost makes me want to go out and adopt a Harley of my own. I'm looking forward to his next little adventure.

This is a lovely story of a family celebration, and you are so obviously an animal lover. All the pets in your house are so lucky to find themselves in such a loving household.

This is so sweet.
Nice story.
Good descriptions.
Interesting.
Entertaining.
Nice characters.
Nice ending too.
Great job.
Oh, one thing you might want to change is you have this piece under the category of general poetry.

Harley is a very lucky dog to have such a loving home.
This is good and explains well how a pet knows the love felt when it is there.
It should make every pet lover to understand that all of God's creatures have feeling and need appreciate.
This is very good and rewarding.
