.... dogs can bring on a smile with the tender and nurturing look of their eyes, along with the occasional, wet, slobbering lick of their tongue. Above all, a dog can always be around the house to nuzzle a hand or leg, to show love even if other human partners will not, because dogs are social animals and need attention like humans. Dogs are highly devoted and appreciative animals and display their love every chance they get. A prime example is the over aggressive wagging tail, running in circles, hanging out the tongue, and standing on their back legs greet, when a owner walks in the front door. As in humans, dogs come in all sha .....

.... Pfingston wrote this story from his heart. I was able to put myself in Brian’s place and actually feel how I thought he would feel. The story that stretched my imagination the most was "Charles" by Shirley Jackson. Even though children have wild imaginations, it did not occur to me that a child in kindergarten would tell such an elaborate lie.
