Oh hi! I forgot about BSky for a bit there again 😆 Here’s some digital Doggy Doodles I completed last week!

Goodness, I got home from work to find so many new follows and reposts! Thank you all so much ❤️
My doggo Django had another vet visit today. Mostly good news, but current diagnosis is kidney disease, which isn’t treatable but can be managed. Here’s the old boy being good at the vet today 💚

Korra and I traveled down to New Mexico with friends to play agility in a new state! 3 days of competition and we only came back with one Qualifying run (2nd place) but it was a hard-earned one!
Korra the Silken Windhound sits next to her dog friend Scarlett the Cattle Dog in a red brick alleyway in Albuquerque, NM. Both are wearing medals and have ribbons in front of them. The background has adobe buildings and colorful flags across the roofs Korra the Silken Windhound stands majestically in front of dark red adobe-style buildings with bright blue doors and windows. Korra the Silken Windhound is laying on her back with her back legs in the air and her front legs tucked along her chest, her eyes closed in a blissful and comfortable-looking sleep on top of a blanket on a couch.

Who will win tug-o-war - 50lb Django or 8lb Pabu??
(No one should surprised at the outcome 😂)

Pabu made it higher than he’s ever been on the cat tree, so of course Charlie and I took pictures like the paparazzi 😂

(and then made sure to supervise a safe exit!)

I am still struggling with posting artwork on social media 😅 It just feels like such an arduous task.

Pabu the papillon lays amongst a display of ribbons of all colors and sizes Django the mixed breed lays amongst a display of ribbons of all colors and sizes Korra the Silken Windhound lays amongst a display of ribbons of all colors and sizes

Here is our 2024 Holiday card! The theme is always the dogs messing with the cats in some way; this year it’s more subtle but I’m sure the cats would still rather be doing something else 😋 Happy holidays everyone!
A cartoon image of a sled speeding down a snowy hilly. On the sled are three dogs and two cats. The cats are up front, claws digging into the sled. The smallest dog is between them, super happy to be going fast and paws in the air like he’s on a roller coaster. The middle dog is behind, covering her eyes and peeking out with a worried expression. The biggest dog is behind them all with ears flapping in the wind and tongue lolling out of his mouth, a happy expression on his face.

Pabu weaving at a recent agility trial! He only just started competing seriously this Summer and has some awesome successes. I can’t wait to see where this little dude goes ☺️

Cartoon portrait of a friend’s dogs! Oakley, Cookie, and Tasha are some sweet puppers. Oakley and Tasha are also agility students of mine so it was extra fun to paint them!
#art
A watercolor painting of three dogs in a cartoony, Disney-esque style. The dog on the left is a blue Merle mini American shepherd (aka mini Aussie). The middle dog is a tan and white cattle dog mix with face speckles. The dog on the right is a brown and tan mini American shepherd. All three are wearing bandanas and smiling at one another.

A few of my pet caricatures I did from 2019-2020. Pet caricatures have become a staple of my commissions! They're so fun to do, and let my cartoony creative side out 😋
a cartoony headshot of a dark brindle dog. The background is peachy orange and the dog has it's mouth open and tongue out, with a calm, sweet expression on it's face. A cartoony headshot of a chihuahua type dog. The background is a pinkish orange and the dog has sad eyes but with a wobbly smile, big ears, and black and tan markings. A cartoony headshot of a chihuahua-type dog. The background is pink, and the dog is turning it's head to the side but looking sweetly at the camera with a closed mouth smile. The ears are small and the dog is mostly white with some brown facial markings around the ears A cartoony headshot of a cattle dog mix. The background is blue, and the dog has large disproportional ears that tip over at the ends. The dog has an open mouthed smile and soft eyes. It is a light brown dog with white markings and lots of speckles on it's fur.

A piece of black and white traditional artwork done in pencil, in a semi-realistic style. It is of the head and neck of a husky dog, with striking eyes and freckles on the muzzle.

Photo of Korra from recent agility trial to please the Silken fam! 😁
Korra the Silken Windhound is running flat out on dirt at an agility trial inbetween obstacles, the judge standing behind her. Her head is low and dirt is being kicked up behind her, indicating she is running really fast.

The problem with me wanting to post artwork here is that I only use this on my phone and I never have copies of my art on my phone 😅 Just dog photos. So… here’s more dog photos I guess 🤪 Maybe someday I’ll remember to get art up here, too! We’ve been having fun with agility, though 😋

I’m still very bad about sharing my artwork (not just here but anywhere 😂) but I do still check Bluesky from time to time to see what my old pals are up to ❤️ Appreciate those who have moved to this site & still update! Here’s another pic of my pupparonis for tax 🍁

I actually kinda wish we got that up here. Here’s a current photo of my backyard 😂 (but to be clear, I say that as the person who doesn’t do the shoveling in the family 😉)

Most of my goals for 2024 involve training my dogs 💪 Hoping to make it a year of harder work for better results!

Not sure what to do here… I have hundreds of stock items of stickers, keychains, etc left over from my convention days. I don’t think I’ll sell at events again… and don’t have the online presence to sell all this online anymore :(
A drawer full of “Always Be Kind” charms A drawer full of clinging wolf stickers A drawer full of Hyena “Smile!” Stickers A 24-stack of drawers almost all full of stickers, keychains, and charms

Our Holiday card this year! ❄️ I hope everyone has a lovely season!

Hi all! I’m glad to have a place to follow friends again :) I do hope to share my art here but I don’t do much furry stuff anymore. A few commissions here and there, but mostly pet portraits and life photos/posts of my dogs are more likely to be the content here! 💙
