| “Merry tells me that Biscuit even keeps his arm warm at night.” Very nice update :) After reading chapter 1 again, I realised that those cute little puppies instinctively made themselves comfortable where their warmth and comfort was needed the most. For Merry this would be: in the crook of his arm! Just wonderful! Author Reply: Thank you, Andrea! I'm so delighted that you noticed that about the puppies! I wanted to show how the puppies would heal the hobbits right from the start, and that somehow Merry's would know just where he was hurting most, and soothe him. I'm so happy you enjoyed! :D | |

| Their conversation was interrupted by insistent barking, followed by a peal of laughter. They peered ahead, watching the puppies frolicking in the grass, tails wagging as they competed for the hobbits’ attention. It was the sight of four happy hobbits, however, that made Gandalf and Aragorn laugh. Picture-perfect as a postcard, Slightly Tookish! You've also got me craving to run out and find a puppy of my own to cuddle :D Author Reply: I thought the hobbits needed puppies to cuddle and comfort them as they healed. I'm so glad you enjoyed. Thank you! :) | |

| EEee! How did I miss this lovely story in March? Never mind, it's a very welcome, heartwarming bit of hobbit/puppy fluff, good for cheering one on a hot summer's day. I love how the people sent such generous gifts, and how wisely they were distributed. I love how the bird began to sing, announcing the arrival of Aragorn and Legolas -- a beautiful picture! And I love how the puppies chose their own Hobbits. Thank you for sharing this delightful scene! Belated happy birthday, Shirebound! Blessings, Mum Author Reply: Thanks so much! I'm so happy that you went back and read this ficlet, and enjoyed it too. I thought it was important that the puppies chose their own hobbits, knowing somehow through instinct who they were meant to be with. :D | |

| puppies puppies puppies puppies puppies puppies!!!!!! Frolicking and tumbling and snoozing! Thank you again, dear one. *melts* Author Reply: *hugs hugs hugs* You know, I was afraid that having puppies at Cormallen would be going overboard. But why shouldn't they have puppies to snuggle and cuddle and keep them cheerful? Those puppy plot bunnies you sprang on me yesterday have been nagging me as well. *sigh* *grin* | |

| That's a wonderful idea for a present! Is there a chance for another chapter? I would really like to read about the hobbits' reactions when they wake up :) Author Reply: Yes, there is a very strong chance of another chapter because Shirebound has been sending me fluffy puppy plotbunnies, and I have a few of my own that are begging me to write them...*sigh* There may be more puppies at Cormallen in the future :) I'm so happy you liked this Andrea. Thank you! :) | |
