Excerpts from Breaking the Chain 2007 winning entries
First Place
Joey the dog talking to Harriet the cat: “I don’t even know why he (his owner) wanted a dog…They don’t call me the great Harriet for nothing….A couple minutes later she came back with her owner and got him to climb over the fence and cut the chain off. Joey never felt so free since he was a puppy. Now Joey has a new and better house (with Harriet). All thanks to the great Harriet.”
Second Place
“I ran back to my house to find something that could break the chain, and as I turned the corner Candace (Harriet’s owner) spotted me. Aw rats, I thought. She picked me up and took me to the couch. Then turned on the TV and began to stroke me. I normally like it when she does this but Harriet the great had to save Joey the big brown dog.”
Third Place
“The super Harriet with kindness brings poor Joey with no water icy cold water and ice cubes in it……One hour later Superman arrives and says what’s the problem. “This poor dog is chained up and I can’t break it…..” Superman breaks the chain. “Joey is happy then they give Joey to Harriet’s owner. Candace gives Joey a big bone that is very good.”
