Reviews For But For A Dog
Author's Response: Yes it was, though to be fair the recipe should have told them how quickly wax boils and when to turn the heat down. I'd say it probably did. Thanks! The next one's up now.
Author's Response: Yes, what they did was foolish, but I know kids who have done the same. Lily did tell her mum about how Petunia made them make candles and she got in trouble as well. Plus, the recipe itself should have told them exactly how to melt the wax and to watch it closely. When my friend's kid bought a candle making kit once, it never said how to melt the wax or that wax has a flashpoint. it's stuff like that which causes accidents too.
Author's Response: Yes, I did read that in the candle-making guide online. Too bad their recipe didn't include those instructions. Me too! I could never leave an animal to burn to death.
But oh my! That's sounds pretty scary! I've known people who have tried stuff like that and in one case, the house did burn down. But I've always been to scared to try anything like that. (Thank my paranoid grandmother lol) But I'm glad Sev, Lily, and Gabe didn't get too seriously hurt. And I don't think Sev was crazy at all for running back in. I would've too if our house ever caught on fire. I'd never be able to live with myself if I'd let me cat die... But I'm really enjoying both Lily and Sev in this fic too. Of course Gabe sounds like a real doll! I like that Severus has someone other than Lily, somone that he's not so cautious to hug. It makes me happy he had someone, but said that Gabe's gone for him. Lovely chapter! Glad I caught the update before I got off!! ;P Author's Response: I love twitting Petunia! She's just so funny! Oh God, that's terrible! My neioghbors were lucky, I've known people whose house burned down because a stray spark from a coldhod full of ashes caught on the roof and started a fire. I would have gone back too, because being burned to death is a terrible way to die and just imagining it makes me shiver. He was, the dog was super smart and loved everyone. I agree, Severus needs someone to hug. I am too, and guess what? Here's the next one! I should also have another chapter of Irresistible Chemistry posted before next week!
Author's Response: yes, they really are worth it. There is no more loyal friend than a dog. That is just so funny! Yes, I can see ducks doing that and having to be brought back. What kind of dog was Sampson? My Gabriel herded kittens, LOL! And children! My sister's cat Angel had five kittens and when they were walking we brought them into the kitchen and let them play, but we didn't want them to go into the formal dining room, which was just off the kitchen. So anytime a kitten headed in that direction, we would tell Gabe, "bring him back" and Gabe would gently nudge the kitten back into the kitchen. The kittens LOVED him! They would crawl all over him and one liked to sleep on his back and some of them would lie inbetween his paws while he was resting. We have pictures, but you had to be there it was sooo adorable!
But as for the rest...that's so sad!! Poor Severus! I feel so bad for him! To lose a friends like that's terrible! I've lost a dog about a month or so ago names Sampson and that was really hard. He'd follow me around the farm and would even try protect me if there were coyotes near by by stepping in front of me and not letting me walk closer to them, but to lose an inside dog would be kinda worse in a way. I feel sorry for Severus and sorry for the lose of your Gabriel! He sounds like he was a wonderful dog! Great chapter though!! Loving it! Author's Response: Wow! That's like . . .really cosmic, as my sister used to say. Aww, I feel bad for you too. So many people have lost their dogs that read this. He was a wonderful dog, and we will all miss him very much. He also took care of children, saved my neice from drowning in our pool once. She jumped in and hit her head on the pool bottom and was crying and couldn't swim out, and Gabe, who hated water, by the way, jumped in and got her out. I swear, it was like watching Lassie on TV only in real life! Oh and I just posted a new chapter!
Author's Response: Thanks. I always think animals can make us have a whole new look on life, they're just so understanding and accepting. |
