100 words
One pleasant fall evening, I decided to build a spice rack. After gathering my supplies, I hooked up my dog then got busy.
Unbeknownst to me, a humanless dog went strolling by. With the strength of a Shetland Pony, my 10 pound chihuahua broke his lead.
Fat girl; armed with a cellphone flash light, is panting after a speeding chihuahua in the dark.
I found him. Chasing Freda lost his interest. He was frantically trying to find another scent; his 15 foot lead in tow.
I got my dog and didn’t need an ambulance. Praise God!
