"Dakota"
8" x 10
Oil on canvas
A few years ago a friend asked me to paint Buster, the family dog, for his wife's birthday. Last Christmas his wife asked me to paint her parent's dog that had suddenly passed as a gift to them.
Sadly, sweet Buster passed away earlier this year and although the husband was concerned it was way to early for another dog, the wife started scanning the shelters. From the moment she saw Dakota, she knew she was the one!

I wanted to paint Dakota because first off she is ADORABLE. Secondly, she is a rescue and I'm so happy that she has found a wonderful loving home and they are a great match.
Fortunately for sweet Dakota (and them) they were looking in rescue shelters - there are so many wonderful dogs and cats out there that are needing good homes right now just waiting for the opportunity to make you happy.
Here is where they found Dakota:
