What a fun post. I enjoyed reading this little story. I like the POV of the dog. Your dialogue is great. I do hope the ending here will come soon for the world and the virus will be history. Thanks for sharing. Respectfully, Jan

No more pet walkies, as if they (the pets) are also aware of the gravity of COVID 19 and are on their way of feeling their action participation in the struggle for survival.

This was a really fun read! I think my own dog, Lacey would relate to Spotty well. I've been taking her out everyday now for little walks, and I think she's sick of it!

It's hard when the only thing you can do is take the dog out. It's funny how we all wish to be home and not go to work and such but once we're given the opportunity to do so we go crazy. I broke my foot a month ago, I'm a pro at keeping myself busy in the house now. I go back to work in two weeks and I'm so not prepared. lol

-Great image, zanya,
and a good story to go with it.
-I like how you tell it
with dialogue, including that
of Spotty.
-He sounds likes like
quite a character, but
he seems to be making
a point that no one is
paying attention to him.
-I like how you give clues,
but give nothing away until the end!
-I like the line there will be
"no more w-a-l-k-i-e-s"
for anyone, including Jennifer!
-Well done. Good luck in the contest.

This took me a while to comprehend, especially the middle part. If there was supposed to be two different scenes, it could have been made more clearer. Otherwise, I do sympathize with both characters, as I can see where both of them are coming from. Otherwise, good luck in the contest.

Thank you for the chuckle and the smile. I guess everyone doesn't want to go out. I loved the whimsical artwork chosen here. It is the perfect compliment to this piece. I'm sure your readers will appreciate your bringing a little levity to such a grave circumstance. Kudos!
