I just had to leave my serial of Zoe Saxon (the female assassin who hasn't actually killed anybody yet) behind this week as who on earth could resist this cutie little picture of the Jack Russel taking a chance on a delicious little cupcake? So here's my take on this week's prompt where I have used the prompt 'Bliss' and for the first time, the picture too which is too adorable to ignore and that's coming from a cat person! xx
A Dog's Point of View
I could smell the sugary cakey goodness a mile off, what was she thinking by leaving such a treat
right in front of me; I am a dog after all and I can’t be held responsible for
the silly mistakes my pet makes and it was the chance I had been looking for.What would the K9 Club say if they knew I had ignored the rule
of no paws on the coffee table in case I accidentally left a tiny scratch; I mean
look at those coffee rings doing more damage than my soft pads could ever do.
I had to uphold the honour of dogs everywhere and show the
Great Dane, Dewy, I had what it takes to become a fully fledged member of the
K9 fraternity; they would surely welcome me, after all Bonnie got in on a slice
of toast that fell on the floor, I mean it was practically given to her and,
toast for dogs sake- what’s that all about?
The first lick of the vanilla frosting tingled on my tongue,
the tiny crunchy balls exploded with sweetness in my mouth, the soft light
sponge melted like butter and before I could say ‘bone’ the cupcake had
disappeared into my well deserving belly; I was in sugary heaven.
It didn’t take long to demolish the evidence of my crime
stealth and the chance to belong to the K9 Club but my tail wagged with the
sugar overload; who needed the K9 Club anyway when my pet left treats around for me to
steal devour and let’s be honest, what kind of name for a Great Dane is Dewy?
A very cute take on the prompt picture indeed. I like how he rationalizes his actions and establishes his right to eat the cupcake before proceeding.
ReplyDeleteI like cute sometimes and any 'thief' would rationalize the worth of their act for proceeding ;-). Nice to see you here too. Thanks for taking time to read and comment. xx
DeleteSo cute, so human!
ReplyDeleteI can relate to the skin feeling of this exceptional dog!
Beautifully written!

Thank you! I don't usually use the pic for the prompt but as you say, he is rather exceptional and human! xx
DeletePS Thanks for the follow. x
Lovely! My Caitlin put up a doggy tale for this too! I love your pup's 'thoughts'...
ReplyDeleteI read Caitlin's. Amazing piece of writing. She's very talented! xx
DeleteThanks Lizzie, fun to do in the Summer Holidays for her too!
DeleteThe little dog is always the most enticing creature.
ReplyDeleteThat he is. . and with the cupcake, who could resist!Thanks for stopping by. x
DeleteThis story made me smile. Toast for a dog? Cupcake looks much better. Very funny and full of perfect imagery.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I agree about the cupcake over toast too! xx
DeleteHow sweet! Cheerful and nicely written, too.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I couldn't do anything else what with those cute puppy eyes. xx
DeleteThanks for the link. I forgot to read it, then found it again. So glad I did. I have a 'thief'. The girl Boxer puppy will steal anything left on a table, even non-edible delights - like my mobile phone!
ReplyDeleteCute pic and a delightful story x.
Oops for the mobile; hope it still works after slobbery teeth been chewing on it. I thought you'd like and could relate Lesley lol. xx
