One-Liner Wednesday – Alert Creature

43 Comments

There’s no creature more alert than a dog when there’s potential food to be had.

Photo: My beagle-Basset hound cross, Winston, sitting on the kitchen floor, looking up at my hand, waiting for me to drop some food.


If you would like to participate in this prompt, feel free to use the “One-Liner Wednesday” title in your post, and if you do, you can ping back here to help your blog get more exposure. To execute a pingback, just copy the URL in the address bar on this post, and paste it somewhere in the body of your post. Your link will show up in the comments below. Please ensure that the One-Liner Wednesday you’re pinging back to is this week’s! Otherwise, no one will likely see it but me.

NOTE: Pingbacks only work from WordPress sites. If you’re self-hosted or are participating from another host, like Blogger, please leave a link to your post in the comments below.

As with Stream of Consciousness Saturday (SoCS), if you see a pingback from someone else in my comment section, click and have a read. It’s bound to be short and sweet.

Unlike SoCS, this is not a prompt so there’s no need to stick to the same “theme.”

The rules that I’ve made for myself (but don’t always follow) for “One-Liner Wednesday” are:

1. Make it one sentence.

2. Try to make it either funny or inspirational.

3. Use our unique tag #1linerWeds.

4. Add our lovely badge to your post for extra exposure!

5. Have fun!

  15. When I first had cats, I fed them tinned cat food. Then the sound of the electric can-opener brought them meowing from any part of the house. Cats came and went and the new generation got fed dried kibbles. Nevertheless, every time I used the can opener, there were the kitties reacting to a sound that had never meant food to them.
