Buddy

This one is Buddy. Although I have only had him once, I feel I have captured his look even if I haven't captured his personality. It takes a couple of times to shine through. He is a lovely sweet dog though, a beagle and I look forward to having him again.

Beau

This is Beau. He is a rescue like many of my dogs are. He has been coming for about two years now and at first was very wary and had a permanent scowl on his face. His markings are part of it, they are very unusual and make him look mad most of the time but now after all this time, he has become trusting and sweet. He is one of my favorites, well shoot, most of them are favorites!! He is a papillon mix and full of energy. Just look at that smile! No more frown for Beau!

Blue

This is Blue, an Australian Shepherd. He is a beautiful dog and his eyes are spectacular.

Trotter

This one is Trotter. He is a very high energy little guy but very sweet and playful. His owner is 88 years old and I have no idea how she handles him but she loves him and he adores her so that is all that matters. He gets all the dogs running around and around in the play yard until they are all just a blur.

Princess and Dutchess

I don't usually take cats but the black and white one (Princess) has been coming for about three years, she started as a kitten and this year she got her own kitten, Dutchess. They are very nice kitties and don't offer to scratch or bite me like some of them do!

Opie

This is Opie. He is a Havanese and like all Havanese is very friendly and playful. He is a fun and funny doggie but always looks sad.

Maddie and Millie

This is Maddie and Millie.
Maddie first came to me with her older dog friend when she was just a tiny puppy, and I mean tiny. Weighed about one pound. She romped and rolled around here and had such fun. Then tragedy struck and her older friend was taken by a coyote the night before her owner was leaving for a trip. Maddie came anyway and stayed many many times with me and my dog Tazzi became her second mom.
Then about a year and a half later came Millie. Now Millie is a very gregarious pup which I think you can see in the painting and has also grown up here. Tazzi has become quite disgusted with Millies antics because Tazzi is Queen. Maddie is sedate and quiet while Millie is just a little Princess monster. They are both very small Silkie Terriers.
