    About this ebook

    Chewy is awesome according to himself. He loves roaming the woods and mountains with his master, J. D. Hess, a retired Police Lieutenant. One could never imagine what this dog could get into next. Could he save the world or change the mighty winds? Maybe not, but he was loved by his siblings and had a mind of his own. He loved his life on the farm and adored his family, But Chewy was tired of farm life and wanted to strike out on his own. When the time presented itself he knew he would have to go and conquer the world, one mile at a time. He wanted to make a name for himself and felt somewhere in his small magnificent body there would arise a super hero and his journeys proved to him just how awesome he actually was.

    Larry, my husband, and I reside in Mount Airy, North Carolina. I have one son. My two sisters are the best friends anyone could ever have. They are my best allies and encouragement supporters. They are my most precious jewels.Due to the Covid issues, I am not presently working at Floyd's Barber Shop in downtown Mount Airy, best known as Mayberry, NC. Known from the Andy Griffith Show that ran from 1960 through 1968 and the hometown of Andy Griffith. We get thousands of people annually in the small, quaint town and we love our visitors, whether just looking or getting an actual haircut. We would love for you to visit us. As far as working, we'll see how long this virus takes hold.I love doing many things: writing, reading, drawing, sewing, jewelry making, barbering, woods, photography, making soaps, creams, butters and more. I never find myself bored and life is a story regardless if it is verbal or in type.I am a Cancer survivor and thanks to Jesus for His supporting hand during a difficult period. Thanks to my husband for standing firm beside me through the ordeal. We turned my cancer into a positive situation and kept an upbeat attitude. Cancer affects an entire family, not just the victim. For those out there with cancer or those who have been through it, cancer is not the end and you're never alone.You never know what touches others. This could go either way; good or bad. But through writing you are able to express and hopefully bring a little entertainment to others. It only takes a word to make a person smile and you never know when a word could pick someone up who is down. We do not have to be authors in its truest form of the title, but do what you enjoy and if it is writing, then enjoy when you do it. Thank you Smashwords for giving thousands of people the opportunity to voice their thoughts through self publishing. It's fun and easy to do. The hardest part is self editing. Locating errors can and will be your hardest part in self-publishing your books. Don't let that stop you! If you have stories that you placed high on that top shelf years ago, it is time to get them down and march forward. Never allow anyone to tell you that you can't. We may never be known other than to ourselves, but do it for yourself and because of your love for writing.Thanks to all of you that have downloaded samples or purchased downloads of my books. You are appreciated. If you have any encouraging words or simply want to point out (my text errors - because they are extremely hard to find yourself), please feel free to contact hurn5262@yahoo.com. Please leave a response in Subject line regarding the story or it will not be opened. Be blessed, Jesus loves each of you very much. Take care!

      A Dog Named Chewy

      Chewy wanted to live in the fast lane. He was growing tired of digging holes around the house to hide his bones just to have his brothers and sisters excavate his hiding places and eat them. To his own dismay, he was growing bored.

      As he lay under the front porh with his eyes closed, he kept running through his mind about leaving home. He could faintly hear the others as they romped and frolicked in the sunny morning grass.

      He loved roaming. He found it invigorating.

      Chewy had always felt there had to be more to life than what met the eye.

      (He had heard that on TV one night and thought it was cool.)

      Chewy loved big cities. But, sadly enough, he had never seen one. However, a short time back he found a damp, crumpled piece of paper on the side of the road that a car had run over and he took it home. The paper read, Explore the Ancient Ruins, and he thought it was magnificent. So immediately he decided that he loved big cities. He tried telling his siblings about the Ruins, but they had no interest nor curiosity. Krank, Chewy’s older sister loathed him bringing trash home and rightfully so, the back yard was full of his special findings.

      Chewy was next to the oldest of his siblings and had to help out often to keep the others in line. There were eight of them.

      Krank hated her name because other dogs and pups made fun of her. She told Chewy that her name made it difficult to strut as she
