Not just another book
theanneoc | November 11, 2009Almost daily, I meet up with a group of people to walk our dogs at a lovely reservoir called Flat Rock. The dogs and people are quite a cast of characters. “Someone just has to write about this,” one of the walkers keeps saying.
So, here we are. The people, dogs and some events are based on real life. The story morphs into fiction along the way. I have an artist on board who plans to do illustrations. Chapters are short and sweet, since we are so used to reading bits and pieces of things through all this new media.
I’ll post a chapter here and there. Enjoy and let me know what you think.

Hi Anne,
This is a lovely story! A wonderful idea for a book.
We have adopted 2 female dogs at about a year of age in the past. And also changed their names.
Look here at the ‘alumni’ page, and you will see our Muffin.

If you do write the book, our family will order at least 3.

Thank you!
Great story! The way you write it makes me want to read more! I will bookmark this blog and watch for it!
My dog and I met up because someone left her at a small cemetery over Memorial Day weekend thinking someone would take her home. Someone did. Me. I tried to find her owners, thinking she must just be lost, after all, she had a new collar and a new-smelling flea dip. Apparently, she’d gotten lost while someone was traveling, or someone dumped her out. She is still adjusting to her new name, Lady, which I’ve learned is a misnomer, but she seems to love me in spite of my imperfections.
A very creative and fun idea. I wish I could take my dogs on adventures to a place like Flat Rock.
WOOF for White Trash at Flat Rock.
Here’s my picture. WOOF!!
WOOF!! Try this picture. Dolly isn’t the only pretty handsome pittie in Fitchburg.
The best thing i like about your blog it’s that you create quality dog related articles . Thanks, and please share more photos in the future. I really like the Chihuahua.
