    Thank you Kahpot! Lovely review. This happened just the other day, and the poor boy found the croissant was too big for his mouth, although he obviously wanted it (and he won't eat it on the footpath of course - his trophy can only be consumed at home!)

This was a funny fifty-five word story! I actually laughed at the end. You got the "humorous twist" requirement down perfectly. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

OMG!!! Gross, but definitely gave me a good (albeit sick) laugh this evening. Yes, dogs consider just about ANYTHING a treasure, don't they? That's why we find them so delightful. We never-but-never disappoint them.

Anyway, good luck in the contest. I hope this takes you to the Winner's Circle. xo

I enjoyed reading this. I tried to write a 55-word story for the contest but found it really difficult to come up with an intriguing ending. I liked the build up and the payoff in the end was great!

I love to write flash fiction, but I find 55 words impossible. You did a remarkable job crafting a tale that provided mystery and suspense right up until the surprise ending. Well done. Best wishes in the contest.

One very happy dog! Well you cleverly built up anticipation there in your very succinct flash! Great compliance with the prompt because I didn't see that one coming! Well presented and a great entry. Good luck! Debbie

'Oh, very good, and what a treasure. Our dogs too would enjoy that little treasure, and a little bit more trash taken from the street so a win win on all counts. As well as ,a good win with your 55 word story. Loved it
and good luck in the contest.

Always a big heart and thinking of the pup...taking home the half eaten croissant, knowing it would be a treat for the dog. Good luck in the contest.
