Review of June 15--Dog

Getting Acquainted

I spend most of my time playing alpha female for my pack of dogs. Lucy (Boston terrier), Harley (chihuahua). Hershey (miniature dachshund) and Jasper (standard schnauzer) are my entertainment and sometimes muses. Jasper is a puppy mill rescue dog and I'm in the intital stages of writing a series of vignettes of his life since the rescue contrasted with eduaction about rescues and puppy mills. I do actually have other interests than writing and my dogs. I love to scrapbook, watch ice hockey, listen to a variety of music genres and reading. My parents both were avid readers and passed that love on to me. I'll read a cereal box if you set it in front of me!

HAPPY WDC ACCOUNT ANNIVERSARY FROM "Invalid Item"

Hello Nikola~Loves Her Gracie Girl!

As a (still relatively recent) pet owner, this piece hits hard. I was obviously aware of puppy mills, animal hoarding, and the sad reality of the shelter system. Only when my cat adopted me was I confronted with the harsh reality that companion animals endure. Sure, those who have loving homes are living charmed lives. The millions of others barely survive.

Your piece was very immersive since it was told from the dog's point of view.

You have one instance of a misplaced "a."

"It literally is a trickle down affect." This should be effect.

Heartbreaking but also beautiful story of a pet who gets its deserved loving home.
