Her name is Ripley, she's just over a year old.
Who painted/created the picture? That’s pretty cool.

My mess.
She just turned 7. Wayyyyy too smart for her own good! This tire she completely ignored for forever. One day I pointed at it and said "Get it". After letting her attack it for awhile, I literally had to pull her off it and carry her away. She would NOT leave it alone lol. A few times I said the same thing pointing to a tree branch--that I knew she couldn't reach--she'd jump trying to get it. I've let her go for an hr just jumping, trying to get said branch, til finally--again--I had to physically grab her and pull her away. This is one determined/stubborn breed, but we love her. I've had dogs my entire life, and she's the smartest, most loyal dog I've ever had. My girl Bree.

Our little boys, Todd and Jax. Todd is a 16 year old terrier rescue from a lake in West Texas. He was on deaths door when my wife found him 14 years ago. Jax is another rescue from Oklahoma, he’s 6 now, and we believe a purebred Havanese.

It really breaks my heart when they put perfectly good animals down, just because they don't have room for them. Good for you for saving them from death's door. I bet they're great companions to you and your family Sam.Our little boys, Todd and Jax. Todd is a 16 year old terrier rescue from a lake in West Texas.

My daughter did it. My wife and I had no idea she could paint/draw until last year. She’s only taken one art class. She just did this one for my brother who just lost his Puggle. I thought it was pretty cool that she added the Angel wings to it.

Love it! Very special talent and a great heart.
That’s pretty damn awesome. I love both of those paintings. So much heart.

Thanks, I’ll let her know. All 3 of the dogs came from different rescue groups and she is going to do a painting with several different breeds for each of them with their groups names on them. The beagle is my daughter’s dog and he goes to Radford with her. The black lab/shepherd mix we got as a puppy, her mother was surrendered to a high kill shelter when she got pregnant. Luckily all the dogs were rescued. The big hound, we adopted right after we got the puppy, he was about 11 years old when we got him almost 4 years ago. He’s an awesome dog and was a huge influence on the puppy. He would correct her if she chewed on something she wasn’t supposed to. Now she corrects the beagle if he tries to do something bad. We were lucky they all bonded together. I wanted my kids to grow up with rescue dogs so they will continue the trend when they get places of their own. All of them plan on having 2 dogs each. We can’t save them all, but we do what we can. I’m glad that congress finally passed the law that animal cruelty is a federal crime now. Not sure why it wasn’t done years ago.

He looks like my dog Cooper. What kind of hound is he? We have a lot of hounds at the rescue groups here in NoVa. In the rural areas, some hunters will turn their dogs in to the high kill shelters once the dog is no longer a good hunter. We have several rescue groups here who try to save as many as they can, but they need financial help. All our donations go to St Jude, Purple Heart, and rescue groups.

Beautiful and smart ( sometimes too smart ) dogs. You won’t have to worry about anybody breaking in to your house. I had policeman tell me one time, that a BEWARE OF DOG SIGN is better than a security sign. He said a security sign like ADT just tells the burglars than you have nice stuff. The beware of dog sign tells them, just move on to the next house.

What a beauty, what kind of dog is she?
There is some similarities. Bailey is a Beagle/Brittany Spaniel mix.
