Power Multiplied

Beloved Pets

I have been taking photos with my phone of my old hard copy pictures and here are two that I found bittersweet. Bittersweet because I loved these dogs immensely with all my heart but they are gone now. On one side you see my Neapolitan mastiff Quiddity, Quid for short, who had been a mother at a wretched and terrible and awful puppy mill farm for neos and golden retrievers. She was in terrible shape and had never walked on grass before, having lived the two years of her life on concrete in her own filth, forced to have litter after litter of puppies. That's me with her getting the big smooch, many moons ago. She was actually the last of the mother neos to die when she was 10, a fact I attribute to pure love. On the other side you see my Justice, Justy for short, a most loving and intelligent goldendoodle. Try to ignore the distortion. He is the taller boy. Next to him is his best friend Mokey who happened to live just down the street. He died at only seven, victim of an undetected congenital hole in his lung. He was my constant companion through some very rough times and we forged a special bond. RIP, my babies. Next week, let's talk writing and AI.
