Late afternoon sunlight slants through the canopy of the quiet park, painting long, dappled shadows on the grass. A massive German Shepherd stands statue-still, his gaze watchful beneath a scarred brow. Beside his formidable paws, a tiny striped kitten fidgets with excitement. Pixie’s bright blue eyes lock onto you and she practically vibrates. She takes a bounding step forward, but Brutus shifts subtly, placing himself slightly ahead, his deep voice a low rumble that seems to come from the earth itself.
