An "Awesome Indie" short story...

Have you ever lost a beloved pet? Have you grieved and mourned yet still feel empty? May the road to Zellwood help you find an end to that sad journey.

*Note: Albeit quite poignant, please be aware this is a very short story. However, I hope you find the message within as cathartic as it was for me when I wrote it...
EXCERPT:

Smack in the center of the state, there sits a small town whose only claim to fame is spring-bottled water and an annual corn festival. It is a blink-of-the-eye beautiful burg with gently sloping hills and towering oaks laden with silvery, spidery Spanish moss. Boasting few traffic lights, it nevertheless has one spectacular pet cemetery.

Zellwood. Rarely does one go there on purpose. But since I have one - though some might say it's silly - I'm going. For somewhere in that tiny town, an old dog named Jake is buried...

5,0 su 5 stelle A very touching story

"Zellwood: A Dog Story" by Rebecca Stroud is a very well-written short story about the death of a dog named Jake, a very beloved dog, and the grief that the author suffered, as well as the grief displayed by her other dog, Annie. Jake was buried in a beautiful pet cemetery in a small town called Zellwood. Both the author and Annie needed some closure after a year, so a trip to Zellwood was in order.

This is a very tender story and one that required a tissue box for me while reading it. Having lost two very beloved cats within the last six months, it has special meaning for me, and also because of my dear dog, Daisy, who is in a pet cemetary nearby my home. This story was helpful in letting me know that I'm not alone with my grief and that brighter days are ahead.

Although this is the first of Rebecca Stroud's short stories I've read, it's obvious that she is very good at writing about animals. I'd like to read more from this author, and I recommend this story to anyone who has gone through the grief of losing a well-loved animal.

This tribute to a lost pet brought a heat to my eyes. I too have suffered the loss of a close pet and hidden from view I follwed Rebecca's every step as she made her way to where Jake lay at rest. With his favourite sock tucked tight into her jeans pocket and ignoring the weather she found him once again. So poignantly written and laced with tenderness this is a wonderful account of human love for an animal. I can see the look in in Jakes eyes,the swish of his tail, the sideways cock of his head. Thank you Rebecca, for allowing us to share your thoughts.

On the 7th of September, I had woken up early to find my neighbor's dog laying on the road, dead. I had found him laying there, freshly killed, his nerves were still twitching. I had heard him get hit and I can only guess that his own owners had hit him. I had went outside in my pajamas and gotten my mom to help me move him into his yard and lay a towel over him so he could have some dignity as we waited for his owners.
When the one who had hit him returned, I went over, luckily dressed, and broke the news to her as gently as I could through my own sobs. She broke down crying and I gave her a hug even though I didn't feel like she deserved it fully. They had always left that poor thing in their front yard with no tether or anything so this was bound to happen one day. My parents were mad that I had found him and that I broke harder than they had. But, he made a difference in me, I want to become a Vet so I can help animals. I don't take any of my animals for granted and he lives on in a story I'm working on, one I had stared a few days before the incident.
As I looked through the kindle books, I found this story and it really pulled to me and I fell in love with it. The author expresses emotion perfectly in this and I am grateful to of opened this story up at read it. It really has helped me pull my head out of that incident.

"Zellwood" is a very short story, but it packs into its few pages a lifetime's worth of love and devotion. If, like so many of us, you have ever lost a pet with whom you had shared that deeply personal bond, this story will speak to you.

If your loss is recent, and your grief is new and raw, "Zellwood" may give you some comfort and hope that, one day, the future will become less bleak.

I found this little book by accident, but I'm so glad that I did.

In "Zellwood: A Dog Story" Rebecca Stroud has created a story that is praiseworthy for both its unique narration and the emotional power of unfolding events.

On the first anniversary of the death of their much-loved dog Jake, Laurie and Tim journey two hours to visit his grave at the pet cemetery in Zellwood. More importantly, they take their ten-year-old dog, Annie, who has been so different since the death of her friend.

While this story is about the bonds of family and friendship, it is also about death and the process of moving on. Using her unique flair for colloquial language, Rebecca Stroud allows us to share this family's grief, closure and ultimately its renewed hope.

A beautiful and healing tale, highly recommended for anyone who has ever loved and lost a pet.
