The Dog I Want To Be

The Dog I Want To Be
The Dog I Want To Be... Where shall I begin. I want to be loyal yet kind and fun to play with. 
I want to be the kind of dog that kids beg their mom's to take home. I want to jump and play and
frolic among the flowers. I want to play fetch with some little boy. I want to romp on the beach and 
lay down in the shade of a big southern oak. I want to sit on the creek bank as my person catches fish.
At the end of the day I want to sleep at someone's feet and know that when I die I will go to heaven
because after all.....All dogs go to heaven...right?

An adorable dog portrait and lovely words to go with it! I always think of these words when I come across street dogs that stare in to blank space and have no clue about their lives.

I haven't been here for a long while. Your dogs are just wonderful ... This reminds me of a schnauzer we used to own. You paint with wonderful brush strokes and your capture of light is really good!
