A tail of two dogs…by Clover.
Looking back I remember Lulu my puppy, her beautiful brown sparkly eyes and her pink puppy coat with the occasional hole in it. That was my last memory of her before she passed away.
But that’s why I have Roxy, my new dog. Roxy is awesome and although she doesn’t have Lulu’s hilarious personality, she gets just as much love as Lulu ever did.
To make matters a little better, Lulu’s old coat is Roxy’s exact size, so mum and dad don’t have to spend money on a new coat. I love Roxy so much but I’ll never forget Lulu.
It’s so hard to lose a pet, as they are so much a part of the family. What lovely memories you have of Lulu though. She and Roxy are both so fortunate to have been loved so much.
Is the attached photo of Lulu?

Hi Michelle,
Thank you for your comment on my work. Since this 100 word challenge is fiction the picture I have chosen is not Roxy or Lulu. Although that doesn’t stop you or anyone else to image that is.
Of course! I do love the picture though (and I thought it was a true story, so great writing!)
Hi Clover, this is such a sad story but one that is so much a part of life and shows us how to be strong. Thank you for this creative use of the prompt, well done.
Lulu looks really cute, it’s sad she passed away. From Zak B
