I've missed the Bernie/Howie stories. If a story is about dogs (or most other animals) it always gets my attention. Love these little stories. Hope to see more of them.

    Hi there;

    Thank you so much for reading the latest of Howie and Bernie's stories. I'm sure as the sun continues to warm up the backyard, they will have much more to tell,

A very cute and funny tale, two canines vying for attention from their mistress. It is well written and very enjoyable reading. Evi

    Hi there;

    Thank you so much for the six-star rating of this Bernie and Howie story. If I didn't think the readers would get tired of them, I would post more of these stories -- they are just so much fun to write!

Who can go wrong looking at cute little doggies and reading about their sweet little story! :) Howie and Bernie are new to me, so I am happy I stopped by to "meet" them. A joy to read.

    Hi, Cindy;

    Thank you for your kind words. I usually post one Howie and Bernie story a month. Those stories are my favorite ones to write,

This Bernie and Howie story, Favorite Dog, is so well told, as always, with Bernie being in the spotlight. The angst of fearing that his lack of circus tricks made him vulnerable to be second best makes his vying for the comfort zone even funnier. Nice story.

    Hi, Bill;

    Thank you so much for reading the latest Howie and Bernie story. Yes, Bernie does have a bit of a complex, doesn't he?

Enjoyed it.

A cute story about the two dogs and their competition to be their owner's favorite. I like the way you bring them to life with their thoughts.
I found no errors or edits needed although I did find the blue text a little more difficult to read than a regular black one.
Probably just me.
All the best. A cute story.

Hi Patty, this was an amusing story about your two dog's antics. I have dog myself and she is something else. I really enjoyed reading about your interactions. All the best. Ulla:)))

Well Patty...
This could be a human tale as well.
If only Howie could speak, his mistress would be aware of Howie's distress.
Although I'm in love with Howie and Bernie. Good job Patty.
Yours, Diana

I wonder how many mailmen do get bit by dogs? These are always fun stories to read. It does seem they both want to be the favorite. My cats do the same thing.

    Hi, Melissa;

    When you watch Judge Judy or People's Court, it doesn't seem like it's the mailmen getting bit these days, but kids and folks out running.

    I'm more afraid of one of the boys getting out and venturing into the road. They wouldn't have any idea what to do.

    Thank you for reading,

    I haven't watched either of these shows in years. Our mail lady drives a truck, so no dogs bother her. That wouldn't be good if the dogs got out on the road.

Wraf, Wraf, love dogs and you seem to know and love them too. I enjoyed it and best of all when the mistress said,"Want a treat to get them off the sofa, haha, we use that too. Dogs and food. And yet what would the world be like without our furry friends. Whoof! I wagged my invisible tail as I read. Good fun. la
