Heart-warming little story about rescuing an abused animal. It's classified as General Fiction, but it certainly reads like non-fiction. Is this a true story? If not, it had me fooled. I couldn't find anything to pick on. Good job. good luck in the contest.

Thesis, this is a lovely little story. I'm so glad you said in your author notes that the dog would be saved. I'm such a bleedingheart that I can't read dog stories unless I know how they're going to turn out. I love it. Great read. pat

You did an outstanding job with only 100 words in which to tell your story. Animal abuse should never be tolerated; good to read about heros.

Writing a story of just 100 words is very difficult. You have done a great job.

The story, though simple is very touching. I am very happy to know that you and your family rescued Samantha from the unkind family. Good luck in the contest.

It is so sad to see an animal abused. I admire you for taking steps to end that abuse by adopting the dog. I have a friend who has six dogs she has rescued from abusive situations. It is so sad when we have to say Goodbye to pet. It is like losing a member of the family. I wish their life spans were longer. Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks Beth. I agree, they are such a big part of the family, but have such a short lifespan. It's very sad when they are no longer there. - Thesis
