I’ve been angry all my life. It seemed like everyone was always out to take from me. I’d never had any friends. When I was in high school, the other kids would go out to lunch together while I sat by myself, just off the school grounds, and felt the bitter loneliness that would soon […]
Mount St. Helens blew its top, the Miami Liberty City riots, and this story all took place between a Friday afternoon and a Sunday morning in May of 1980. I had just moved my business offices to a new location, a strip shopping center. The place had about ten stores set up for retail businesses […]
My name is Andrew Joyce. Ellis knew me as Billy. However, that’s another story. I’ve been asked to say a few words about Ellis. But what can I say that you don’t already know? He was one of the cheapest sons of bitches I ever ran into. But then again, he was one of the […]
FREEDOM! At long last, I was free for a short while yesterday. Every morning, I take Andrew for a walk and when we return, he ties my leash to the dock. I have no problem with that; I’ve got my bowl of water and the leash is twenty feet long. I just love sitting outside […]
I am fearless. I am Danny the Dog and (to be redundant), I fear nothing. I chase squirrels, chickens, raccoons, ducks, and of course, cats. However, there is one thing that kind of gets to me, and that is thunder. I don’t know why that is. My human, whose name is Andrew, told me I […]
I have written about my friend Mike before in other venues, he of Mike and Beth fame. But now, I want to go into a little more detail concerning him. However, before we discuss Mike, perhaps I should introduce myself to all you neophytes out there. Not that there are many. Everyone knows who Danny […]
I’m back! It is I, Danny the Dog, everyone’s favorite pooch. I took a few days off from my writing chores so my human, Andrew, could use the computer. He had to work on some book he’s writing. I told him I’d do it for him, but no, he told me that I don’t write […]
Hello, dog fans. It is I, Danny the Dog! I’ve been helping Andrew look after three Labrador retrievers. What a nightmare! There is Chloe, who is fourteen months old, and then there is Beau and Hank. They are both four months old and they are holy terrors. They live on a boat down at the […]
This post is dedicated to my good friend Piri who lives over in Scotland. Good morning, gentle souls; I am Daniel J. Daniels, Dog Extraordinaire. Most of you know me by my nom de plume, Danny the Dog. As another great writer (but not as good as me) once said, “A rose by any other […]
Ahoy, all you landlubbers. It’s me, Danny the Dog. I live on a boat with my human who I’ve alluded to in the past. His name is Andrew. Now, I do know for a fact that mostly humans read my stories, but my writing is usually geared to my fellow canines. Having said that, I’ll […]
