Stan was lying on the ground, watching his guardian typing away on her laptop. He chose to stand up, walked towards her and started to tug her trousers, indicating clearly, “Time for a walk!” She looked at him and proceeded to get ready for a walk. At the carpark, he saw a dog with aContinue reading “The Beauty of Choice”

The spider glanced at the stalk opposite where it was sitting. It further glanced at the leaf above it and also at the branch below it. It started working. Walking slowly from branch to leaf, leaf to stalk and stalk back to branch again, it spun its web. Inch by inch, step by step, theContinue reading “Freedom”

The dog pulled at his leash, almost tugging free from his guardian. His teeth were bared as he snarled, his heckles were up and almost choking himself standing on his hind legs trying to pull forward. Austin was walking beside his guardian, stopped and looked at the snarling dog. His head was cocked, ears prickedContinue reading “Doing their best”

Cooper was lying down, relaxing on his bed. His much-loved tugging toy lay beside him. His little brother (from another mother) crept towards him, eyeing his toy. Cooper cast his eye upon him lazily and continue laying there. As the little dog crept closer, he let out a low growl of warning while still eyeingContinue reading “Ready and at home”

Casper looked up at his guardian, bored and almost yawning. His guardian was telling him off for ripping up her slippers.

Snarling and baring their teeth, they continued their ritual dance. Frank stood on one side, head cocked and wondered what was going to happen. One dog made a dashContinue reading “Living in Peace”

Benji was resting in the garden, mulling about life and such. He was just lounging on the patio deck, absorbing the gentle warmth of the sun. Unbeknownst to him, his little sister (from another mother) was lying in his comfy bed that he usually guards religiously, wrapping herself in his favourite blanket and busy tearingContinue reading “What I do not know”

Odin walked tentatively to the door, licking his lips and glancing from side to side. He was at the vets again. He did not like it. The last time he came, the vet stuck something sharp into him while smiling and pretending to be friendly and helpful. Odin wanted to be home, to be safeContinue reading “Anxiousness”

Buddy looked up. The sky was full of cotton wool falling and flying around. He barked excitedly and jumped to try to bite one. It tasted cold. It was not wet like the rain he was used to. It moved differently from the Tears of God. It uncharacteristically flew around with the wind. One fellContinue reading “The Snowflake”

Flint hopped on his three legs, looking around for rabbits to chase. He had been knocked down by a car last week. As a result, one of his legs was crushed and had to be amputated. He had always lived his life vicariously. In fact, the reason for his accident was that he was chasingContinue reading “How does life affect you?”
