Comments for The Furballs And I: Page 1

Want to say well done, well written, well explained, well done (deserved to be said twic). Something like that happen to me, I'd be trying to hold onto those dogs. Of course something like that exactly would be highly unlikely, a girl has a different fear to deal with than most boys. That's why all girls should be gun toting, black belt jujitsu experts... With two dogs, as you describe...

Chookie, Otter and Caz,
Hey, thanks for reading and commenting. 😊
All I can really say for those huskies is they were really beautiful, and didn't look like strays. If they were it hadn't been for long. They had impeccable timing too!
I do have another small 'animal' antidote that I thought was weird, but you might like. When I was attending college, I had to walk about 1/2 a mile past a water retention pond and a farmer's field to get to campus from the bus stop. This combo attracted all kinds of birds and water fowl, from the great blue heron, and Canadian geese, to black crows and tiny sparrows. Every day, I'd trudge past and they'd chirp, squawk, or what ever. One day, it was really overcast and they were kind of lined up along the pathway/ sidewalk. If you will, think of Hitchcock's The Birds, it was that unnerving to see them like that. But really eerie is as I past they all turned their heads in unison watching me. *Shudder* Not paranormal but freaky.

Valkricry- This was an awesome story, really reassures me that animals do have souls too... I am glad that Mr. Creepy the creep was scared off by them... Thank you for this story ❤

dreamer,
Ouch! Hopefully the leg healed alright?
I'm with you, help can certainly come from unexpected sources.

Steampunk,
Thanks for reading and commenting! There's been several times in my life where animals played a pivotal part, and I'm fairly sure without them things would have played out differently. My father always claimed I anthropomorphize animals too much, but I don't think so. Some make better friends than people do.

Loved your story Val and glad it turned out OK in the end! Dogs have always been my passion and do always seem to know when you're sick or sad or worried ect! I guess this pair were a little more than dogs though! PS... I also love dolphins (and other whales) and pigs and horses and donkeys ect--ect--ect... 😉

Loved your story, what a trip and you were not only watched over by guardians in the park, but when she took a swipe at you too, skitso's can be very intent on their subject once they get a notion in their head... I'm glad you were ok and had some good memories to take home with you to dilute the frightening ones!

That's.cute and sad story, I'm glad the dogs were there to keep you company while your brother was learning if your where abouts. Don't think twice that they were sent to you too keep you safe... God bless...

val,

Loved your story. Help can come out of the oddest places at the oddest times as I discovered after I was hit by a car in the street. Laying in the gutter, unable to move, as my leg was basically mangled, the first face I saw was an off duty paramedic that was waiting for his wife in his car just 50 ft away.

It still makes me think wether it was angelic intervention or was it pre ordained, part of my life path, karma so to speak.

Thanks for sharing 😊

Red,
Well, since I'd only been there 3 days, the only place that was semi-familiar to me was the park. He just began looking for me in places nearby that he thought I might go, luckily the park was the closest and therefore first.
I'll swing by your story! 😊

I'm glad your furry bodyguards were there for you when you needed them 😊

lady-glow,
Awww, thanks! I do have some fond memories of that trip. My brother knew the driver of one of the trolleys fairly well (introduced us, even) when learning I was from Chicago he did the Rice A Roni bell tune! Also, I got to see Alcatraz. The prison was closed, but I did see the island - depressing place. Then there was Fisherman's Wharf as well as China Town. We crammed a lot into the 3 days I managed to stay.

val
How did your brother know where to look for you? If it were me I would have gotten as far away from that house as I could. You were very lucky you didn't get cut. You were also lucky that those dogs were guarding (guardians) you.

BTW
I finally was able to answer you and Biblio on my Engagement Ring story. My tablet is a few years old and is easily manipulated. It was like one of the dead dads as Biblio has come to think of them was reading over my shoulder and would flip my tablet off, go to a new story, or eat my response. I'm using my computer so it doesn't do that.
Regards
Red

Dear RC and Wish_Not,
Saddly just a few years later Violet ended up institutionalized - by court order after she attempted to murder my brother. I'm not sure of the details as some things are just not discussed with a 14 year old, but I do know he nearly died from her attack, which led to her arrest.
I'm not sure if the dogs were 'ghostly' either, RC. I'm just happy they decided to 'claim' me when Mr. Creepy showed up.

Val- Yet another treasure, I do enjoy your adventures. Bet you didn't enjoy this while it was happening. Must have been something for a 14 year old to experience at the time.

As RCRuskin mentioned, I hope your sister in law got back in line with her meds.

Looking forward to your next.

Valkricry: this is such an amazing story, just like all and each one of your experiences.

Thanks for sharing.

First off: Yikes! Has your sister in law gotten back on her meds by now, I hope?

I don't know if the dogs were "ghostly" but I do believe they were sent by someone helpful.
