I'm back home after spending nearly a week with my nephew's pets. 2 presas and 3 cats. We had a great time. I adore their pets.
This is Loki, 130 lbs of pure muscle. Black w/white markings Presa Canario. He is either in love with me or is worried I'm going to steal the family silver. His owners vote for love, because he has no silver. It is nice to be with a dog I know will protect me if I need it. His ears are cropped (a practice I am 100% against). I guess people think it makes the dogs look scarier. Nala, their other presa, has her natural ears. They do not make her look less scary to someone who doesn't know them.
The white dog in the background unfortunately died a month or so ago. They woke up and she was dead. I don't know how old she was, but she didn't seem sick. And there was nothing poisonous around for her to get into. Their house is set up for keeping their pets safe.
Nala is a brown brindle Presa Canario. I can't get her photo to load here.
I just figured out what is causing me to have a hard time typing. I'll be in the middle of a post, and suddenly it disappears. Or half the word I just typed ends up 2 lines above the original word. I proofread now, but if you notice a few word parts scattered around, that's why.
I have neuropathy in my pinkie and ring fingers of my left hand. The nerve damage was caused by chemotherapy. I hardly notice it because it is always there. But it is definitely effecting my typing. I thought it was my laptop and was thinking about what to buy. Instead, those fingers aren't working right. I can't really feel them touch the keys. I feel kind of dumb because this is so obvious. I also have it in my feet. No pain involved, and that's probably why I don't notice it very often.
day....
