Contest I'm back! To celebrate, lets give away points! :D by Possum63Edit

Prompt

Hey y'all

I'm back. Haven't been on this in MONTHS. So, to celebrate I'm giving away points. YIPPEEEE!

Okay. So for this contest I want your best stories that features some kind of animal. The reason I've chosen this is because I've just gotten a new beagle puppy that's 8 weeks old. She is GORGEOUS!

Anyway. Maximum words is 1000 'cause I'm working full time now and don't have time to read much. Can be any genre as long as its based around or includes an animal. Even if it's just the main character has a pet turtle or something. Can be absolutely any animal from a dog to a leopard to a platypus. I don't mind. Please make sure your grammar and spelling is top notch.

I'm going to read and comment on every entry. I'll try to give something I liked, disliked and something to work on in my comments so it's constructive criticism. And last but not least, having fun and thanks for entering!  

Cheers.
