This was a shocking surprise and eventual gift to me and Lyd, from my father!
On our short visit last weekend, we went to our room and unpacked and dad followed us to the space. I spotted a painting of their RIP Buster and along the wall a little further, I saw our Mandy the mini schnauzer dad had captured on a new oil painting! When Lyd looked up she had instant tears, as she viewed the artwork of our dog!
It is now on your living room wall! Beautifully done dad! We shall treasure it forever!

Happy National Pet Day to you and Your Pets!
