This
is a portrait of my mom's dog, Fancy. She is a beautiful Brittany Spaniel
that my mom adopted just after Hurricane Katrina. We are convinced that
she was a well loved dog because she was beautifully trained but she was
probably hastily given away when evacuees were unable to keep pets with them
at shelters and hotels. To whomever had her as a puppy, know that she is
well loved and taken care of. In many ways, I think that the universe conspired
for her to go to my mother, a woman who needed daily unconditional love — and
quite frankly, it was her turn.
