Aww - how cute is this story. I hope it's true as it is a sweet account of a first meeting to a friendship brought together by carefree and trusting canines. A well written 100 word story that leaves the reader wondering - what happens next? ;-)

    I wish the story was true, but it?s fiction inspired by the photo. I am delighted you enjoyed it. Rod

A love story for dog lovers. Anything that brings two people together in a good way, should be applauded and celebrated. Only dog lovers would be okay with the canine match-maker having a place at the table. But it makes for a cute story.

    Thank you, Ginda. I?m a dog lover, but my dog stays below the table and off the chairs. Rod

This was so cute! I like the way they were brought together by their pets, then rewarded the pet with a place at the table. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

LoL. Now that's quite the reward for matchmaking! I'm thinking that Sadie should also be given a place of honor since it was her friendliness that started the two hour introduction!
Best wishes in the contest!

Wow, she was a little too forward. Most women wouldn't go so fast but I guess there are all kinds. Sometimes, having pets helps couples to meet.

Good entry for the 100 Word Flash writing prompt contest. Good flash fiction form and word count. Nice presentation.

Very cute story. It reminds me of romantic movies like When Harry met Sally kind of movie. Nicely constructed and brought through to a satisfying conclusion. Good luck with the contest

You made me smile with your endearing write here, but dogs sitting at the table with humans whilst they are eating is a complete no no, but this is a fun post, love Dolly x

    Well, I am delighted my story made you smile, Dolly. I barely tolerate having dogs UNDER the table while I eat, but never AT the table.

This one-hundred-word story, Belvedere, has the proper word count and gives the readers a well-packed tale of two people meeting and a cutesy ending with a rewarded dog. Funny.
