Careful! You’re going to ruin the rug with that!
Watch where you put it down. I just cleaned the floor.
Did you even check how old this is? I mean, we have to feed this to the kids, for crying out loud!
You mean you didn’t put the bowl back after eating? Come on! I can’t do everything around here.
Ella glared at Rory, her nostrils flaring and her face red with irritation.
ENOUGH! barked Rory. Your rules are really beginning to annoy me. What does a dog have to do to get a moment’s peace around here?
Saying this, he stormed out of the kennel, deliberately thumping his tail against the door. Ella hated it when he did that, because it made the whole place shake! She turned her back on him and went back to licking her pups’ ears.

Cute! Great job!
What a tale! Perfectly worded. 🙂
I wasn’t expecting this to be a dog tale (or tail 😉 ). Well done! 😀
Even dogs don’t have peace… Sigh! Super imagination there Shailaja.
Nicely done. It’s a good thing I didn’t see that *rules* prompt. It wouldn’t be a short story, but a lifelong writing project. 🙂
Too funny! Love it!
Hahaha! That was so cute. Liked it a lot 🙂
Too good Shailaja..
aww! That was adorable!! Didn’t see that twist coming.. but its a cute one! 🙂
haha rules can be annoying. Loove the dash of humor:)
Funny! I didn’t see that coming.
It really is a dog’s life. Funny and creative.
Or in this case, Ella’s life 😉 Thank you so much for reading and commenting. Welcome to the blog.
You are too good Shailaja…Too Good!
