The topaz were an interesting group often wholly of Asian descend, who might have had in a generation, an ancestor who had European bloodlines . The Topas groups general Asians, but with the influences of their genetic history would change their social behavior.

The cultural changes from being partly mixed race brought some social advantages , especially once converted , their children and later generations who were brought up into a new colonial system. Often elevating their social standing and opening new doors into society once not available to them.
Often the Topas groups kept their Asian customs and traditions especially in their culinary practices but were more inclined to imitate and even dress in a Europeanize manner this made social acceptances easier as well as seeking career which were often available to those for the Dutch mestizo populations.

Just as important as the mestizo or Mestiza groups ,the topaz Portuguese were linked to the early period ancestral -mothers in Ceylon this was also similar for the other VOC settlements in Asia India and the Cape . Both the Ceylon Portuguese and Dutch burghers of the British period might have had a topas ancestor . This was a general tendency for most of the Dutch territories in Asia who all had indigenous mixtures.
From the Portuguese and later Dutch territories there were often mixed raced populations consisting of of Pustiz, castizo , mestizo groups where the Topas were the lowest of these echelons who were considered part of the local community.

The Topaz populations who instead of marrying back into the Eurasian or European communities had married continuously into the Asian groups.

This was perhaps another reason why the Topas populations could not reach recognition with in the Company social hierarchy .
It was not until the next generations who emerged as converted Reformed , educated , landed town inhabitants, entrepreneurs with business innovations that made them eligible partners to the lower settlement mid -classes . It is interesting though the Topas who married into the Europeans, their families did far better as those who married into the Asian lower echelons , for the reason these groups were not seen as marriage candidate for the elite Singelese who would not consider them as marriage material.
The lower settlement mid -classes, once looked down during the (white ) Company rule , would emerged as a powerful upper middle class in Ceylon who in turn would marry into the impoverished Dutch community ( 1795 – 1830) and become ancestors of the present day Ceylon Dutch Burghers.

Sallie ... keeping watch through eternity over the spirits of her boys, just as she did so many years ago during all of the battles they shared. — Monument to the 11th Pennsylvania Infantry, Gettysburg

Sallie wasn’t lost — she was watching over the wounded and dead of her regiment...

1861: The new 11th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry Regiment was still in their first month of training, when a stranger from town brought to the captain a puppy, barely four or five weeks old, and presented it to the regiment. She was a pug-nosed brindle bull terrier that soon won the admiration of all the men in the unit. She was cute, and the men named her “Sallie” after one of the local beauties in West Chester, PA, the site of their training.

1863: On the first day's fighting at Gettysburg, the 11th PA was driven back from Oak Ridge and into town. During the chaos, Sallie became lost and three days later was found by a member of the 12th Mass. at the original position of her regiment when the fighting broke out. Sallie had found her way back and was now standing guard over the wounded and dead of her regiment. Neither hunger nor thirst swayed Sallie from her duty those hot summer days. Weak from lack of food, her comrades successfully nursed her back to health, to again serve with her regiment for nearly two more years.

Sadly, just two months before the war's end, Sallie was killed at Hatcher's Run, VA. As the battle raged around them, under “murderous fire” the weeping men of the 11th PA buried their loyal friend and comrade on the field where she fell.

In 1890, when the surviving members of the 11th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry erected their monument, they could not forget their little companion who so bravely and so faithfully served by their sides throughout the war. There on Oak Ridge, looking out over the fields in the direction from which the rebels came, at the base of the statue is a bronze likeness of a little dog. It is Sallie ... keeping watch through eternity over the spirits of her boys, just as she did so many years ago during all of the battles they shared. A dog so loyal and so full of love for her men that they insisted she be remembered on their monument, for all time.

Groomed dogs are healthy dogs! 🐶🐶😍🛁❤️ 🐾
Grooming is a natural thing for all animals. As a dog's hair grows only for 90 days and falls off all, this dead hair must be removed from its’ coat.
Brushing must at best be done daily which removes the dead hair. This also has the additional benefit of getting rid of the "Doggy smell" that a lot of dog owners complain about.
The other advantage of brushing the dog daily is that you get to see the condition of the animal on a daily basis. This helps in being alert to any issues that the dog might face.
The grooming also helps to keep the parasites in check. Because Ticks, Fleas, and mites can cause deadly diseases to the dog.
With your hectic lifestyle, you don't have time to look into every spot. Let us take care of your loving companion.🐾

If I passed before my dog(s), I would ask for permission to return just to say goodbye; to let my dog(s) know that God called me, and that I didn't abandon them.

I would tell them I want them to take care of themself (and each other), and that in the meantime, I'll be waiting for them.

I would give them one last kiss, one last hug, and tell them that they are the best things that have ever happened to me. That I have loved each with all my heart & I've loved them the most.

If I pass first, give me permission to tell them that. And especially to tell them that when we finally meet again, it will be forever.
