Ha! This is too cute. I can totally imagine some poor fool dropping his dog off at the vets, assuming he could just come back later and pick his poochie up! Great flash fiction piece.

    He lived just down the street from the vet. Thanks for reviewing.

A very well-written dribble flash fiction about a very clever dog that keeps the appointment with the Vet while the owner forgot about the appointment and gets the surprise call from the Vet.

Lol! That's so cute. How does that happen? Was this based on a true story? I have heard about dogs catching buses but I don't think any animal willingly goes to the vet!

    Yes, it's a true story. The dog lives just down the street from the vet's office. I wish I could have seen his owner's face when Dr. Foster told him the dog was on time, but the man was late. LOL

This is so cute. I really enjoyed it. That must be a very good vet for the doggie to go there all by himself. Good little story and I wish you luck in the contest. Marilyn

    My cats love to go. They love the vet. I've been going there for 26 years, and he's never been wrong. Thank you so much.

There were a few times when I had to cancel an appointment when my free-range
dogs hid from me, never the other way around....excellent flash (fiction?) it seems to me.

    Thank you. I've had to cancel, too, for the same reason. This dog lived right down the street from the vet's office.

Great story entry for the dribble flash. Besides having a hilarious plot, you did a good job structuring the story with so few words. It is interesting how each word is so important in one of these flash stories

What a fantastic flash fiction this is, Yvonne. It just goes to show how intelligent animals/dogs really are. The dog understood the appointment and wasn't going to be missing it despite the man's being late.

A fine story and a most worthy entry into the contest.

Best of luck to you.

Gloria
