A Dog's Tale

Today I heard the recounting of man and his son and dog walking along a river in Southern New Jersey on a cold winter's day. The river froze over as a matter of course in the winter and the trio would walk along the shore and the ice. On this particular day the ice gave way and the dog fell in. The man went into the river and saved the dog. He and his son took the dog home, warmed it and the dog lived on fine.
Weeks later when the three walked along the shore again, the man fell in. The dog saved him.
What a wonderful story. How appropriate for this season that we are entering into. A season of ultimate giving and love. Love is the perfect give, peace the perfect reason. Given in this way, the way the man gave to his dog and the dog to his master, it shines brightly like the Evening Star, guiding our hearts toward understanding and mutual respect.

Bertie
wonderful lighthearted and happy ending luckily, story!
could you start a discussion group please called Dog's Tales and other animal stories and put this as the very first one?
I think it would be a great discussion area for people to write their stories. Thanks
It is a miracle of a story isn't it!

Okay, I'll do that. Animals are inspirational in that their loyalty is nonpluss.

actually Bertie
see if you can do this

Write the name as I said...
and then write something like "Animals are such great ....whatever you want here...THEN put your story as the fist one
That way it will be an introduction to what the discussion group is all about...but you decide what it could say up at the top inviting people to tell their stories. Yours will be the first one, cut copied and pasted in below.
hope it is not too difficult...let's see how it goes
