“Are you lost or did you run away?” No answer from the pup. A collar was around the sturdy neck but she had no time to call. She figured she’d carry the pooch to the office, buy a leash, food, and call the owner What a plan! And what about the Christmas party? She, Meredith, was totally in charge of the big event. Okay, she had enough pull to bring the pup to the party. So far she didn’t the man of her dreams but maybe tonight. Just maybe.She checked the collar area and sure enough , a collar of identification was there to read. Snuffy belongs to Brian Reed and a phone number was right there.
The phone and rang. A grumpy voice answered “What?” “Mr. Reed, I found your dog or rather the pup found me on the way to work. The pup is sleeping on my lap. I can return the dog at the end of the day.”Keep her. I don’t give a damn.” “He coughed. “Sorry. I’m recuperating from hip replacement and the stupid dog sitter lost her.
“I’ll get leash and food for her and keep her with me all day at our Christmas party.”What kind of dog is Snuffy?”
First of all she is a Therapy Dog with a certificate, so there. And what name would you prefer, you with your temporary pooch?” Meredith decided to be kind. She’s a female and deserves a pretty name so I’m going to call her Lulu.

Dear friends, this is another Lulu story. Please enjoy every moment. Lots of fun here
Sounds like he needs a therapy dog more than he realizes. It will be interesting when Meredith and Brian meet for the first time.
And so it goes.it , Thanks Jessica
Maybe he needs a ‘mental therapy’ dog?
To be continued, Ed.
Wow, he starts off as unpleasant person and the dog deserves a better home so I’ll be very fascinated to see how it all unfolds. Quite the excerpt! Hugs to you, my friend!
Even if you’re in pain, it’s no reason to be so rude. He needs an attitude therapy dog. He doesn’t deserve Lulu, but I guess I’ll give him a chance to improve. 🙂
Yes, we sometimes forget to be pleasant. More action next week.
Some people don’t deserve dogs, but maybe Meredith can redeem him.
Tune in next week for action.
I agree, he needs mental therapy. But…if he’s in pain, finally got to sleep, then woken up, he’s (sort of) entitled to be grouchy. Nice snippet, Charmaine.
More action next week. Hope you are enjoying my short story.
LOL – love the first line – no answer form the pup. We do talk to them like we expect them to answer.

You get it every time, yes you do
Well, he’s not very nice. I’m not sure ‘Lulu’ can help with his attitude problem. 🙂
Thanks, Karen. More fun ahead.
I hope Lulu can improve his mood. Do I see romance ahead?
Lulu is muuuuuuch better than Snuffy. 😀
Too amusing. Thanks, Amy.
I think she’s the right kind of therapy for him!
Too cute and so much to learn. Thanks, Nancy
That is a sweet name for a pretty dog! 🙂
I don’t know how I missed you on Sunday. Hope you’re having a good week. Hugs!
So it’s your fault, not mine. Too much fun. My close friend with a pup has a perfect pooch someone gave to her. Dogs, cats, and 2 chickens and you have an infinite array wonder between kids of any size. Is your hubs adorable also? My dearest love was also a cutie until he died of heart failure. Now I write about my recollection of happy days. Are we adorable or what!
