That was a great excuse to get back into writing fiction.
Here's the story.

It's based on my German shepherd we had to put down when I was a kid. The stuff in the story is total fiction however.
Thank you for submitting a story...At least it was 'inspired' by your pet lost as a child. Also, I see that you resteemed the contest announcement, which I thank you for. You have up-votes from a sponsor for being descriptively honest with your submitted entry. Welcome back to the 'writing'...contests are good for practicing and developing your talent. Regards @averageoutsider
This is genuinely amazing writing!
Wow! whatever it is...You've got it my friend. I thoroughly enjoyed the piece from start to finish your descriptive qualities are second to none. I was in shock for a little while at the culmination I gotta confess. I am so glad you entered this contest just so I had the pleasure of stumbling across your work!
Your contest is hotting up my friend @averageoutsider.
I will of-course be back soon to upload the link to my story (think 700 words...think 700 words...Brevity) although feeling a tad inferior to @nathan-rokus I am joking of-course but not about his immense literary talent :)
Take great care, see ya very soon :D
Up-Voted by @angryman for 'Honesty' and Participating.
