I love Gracie. You brought the action and I could see all her moves. Very good chapter and one that could probably be expanded with Gracie's character. She needs more publicity. LOL
Best wishes,
Rita

Hey Rita,
That is one of my favorite chapters, huh? And I loved being able to talk about where she was going and what she'd be doing when she got there.
Thank you for that fantastic sixer, Twinnie. I so appreciate you!
Big hugs,
Gayle

What a bueatiful description of the dog. This is well written. The dog is just as much of a character as the humans. All the characters seem to have been developed well. There is tension in all the actions. It seems Special Agent Stein and Gracie will make a good team
Congrats and keep writing

I had to read this because of your contest win --and I'm so glad I did. It is well-written and allows the reader to be right there with Amazing Grace. Great job and well-deserved win. ann

Hi Ann,
So nice to see you again. Gracie was one of those fun chapters to write, I have to admit, and I'm glad you liked it!
Thanks for the wonderful comments and encouragement,

I'm a first time reader and I enjoyed the chapter. Especially the training of Amazing Grace. K9 units fascinate me, I guess because I like dog. Good tight writing with natural dialogue.

Comment from CALLAHANMR
This is an outstanding chapter. It has great dialog, suspense about Gracie's ability to adapt to a new handler. and wonderful visual imagery. It was easy for me to visualize what Gracie looked like.
I do think it is good enough to be a stand alone chapter. I picked up the action quickly, although I have not read any of this book in the past.
I found no SPAG and enough interest to make me want to learn more.

Hey Roger,
You gave me a bit smile. I love writing about the dogs and when I can get a great reaction from the 38th chapter, well, I feel good.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review!
Hugs,
Gayle
Comment from RenieReader
This is an exceptional chapter showing the strength and beauty of these dedicated animals when well-trained. Gracie is definitely 'Amazing' and she knows it. I'm shivering.
Wouldn't change a syllable.

OH BOY! A sixer! Wow. Thank you so much. That puts smiles on my face. I just love Gracie. We have to do a book about her. Wow, what a gal!
Thank you for the wonderful rating and the encouragement you always give me.
Love you,

WHOAH!
Amazing Gayle, is what this is. Yes the dog is, or seems to be, somewhere over the top; but you had me from the get-go, and I loved it.
What better test of fiction is there?

Oh my goodness, Joel, I'm thrilled! Thank you so much for that. The stars are great, no two ways about it, but the comments, my dear, brings tears to these old eyes. Thank you so much!
Hugs and love,

I met a large female Dobie once. Sweetest young lady you could ever meet. Now her brother was another story. You have another very good chapter on your hands.

Ah, Barb, sometimes I feel bad making them seem so mean. Dobies are huge lapdogs who want nothing more than to climb upon you lap and love you to death. On the other hand, if stuff is getting rough, they're the best! So appreciate your support and kind words! Gayle
Comment from Sissy
Hey Gayle,
Totally LOVED this chapter! Great job. Grace sounds like she's found the perfect job and handler for her! Really, really nice job on your part. Felt like I was there watching this. Your description was excellent!
I personally think you should put this in the book, but I am somewhat biased!!
A few things:
Her stubby tail twitched twice and was still (and stilled?)
(this is more personal preference - you know I hate 'was's!!)
She resembled an onyx statue(+,) only better
Watch the 'her's here, Gayle. There were a couple times I actually ALMOST cut and pasted a line or two, but then left it. Reread with that in mind and see if you think you can weed out a couple.
Not knocking a star on this one. All opinion-stuff, Gayle!
Take care,
Sissy

Hey Sis, I'll take all your ideas into account, as I always do. I just KNEW you'd love this chapter. Gracie is such a kick, you know what I mean, and then you muscle up and stare her down and she's all, like, 'okay, you da boss, me da point man. It's good, it's good.' Thanks again for the super duper comments and rating. Love ya! Gayle

This is a very well written story. Yes, it is a stand alone, but it could also be a novel about Amazing Gracie, Texas Ranger. Very good job of writing.

I think the Rangers will be thrilled to get her and she and Agent Stein will be instrumental in keeping the borders safe. Thank you so much for your wonderful suppiort, Charlie and your always kind words. It means more than you know! Hugs,
