I now have a Website for my pet portraits.  Yahoo!  No not "Yahoo".  Guess I should have said Yipee!  Check it out!  https://www.mypetssoul.com.  Send me  a picture of your pet or someone else's pet, and I can do a pastel portrait or watercolor.  Also trying acrylic.  I love animals.  The pictures speak to me.  They aren't your average portrait.  I don't do picture perfect portraits.  I try to capture the personality of the dog, cat, or whatever animal picture you send me.  When at all possible, I like to meet your pet.  You can tell me something about your pet, what they like to do, some quirky things they do etc.  Thanks for visiting!

Why Do Dogs like Hibiscus Flowers?

Our dog loves hibiscus flowers.  Though he's 10, he'll jump up to grab them off the bush.  I know they are high in vitamin C, but what exactly would a dog find tasty about the flower.  Our little Silky mix even likes them.  They actually beg for them.  I can't imagine they are harmful, because they have been eating them for years.  If anyone knows about this, I hope they post something.

Our beagle - best bud

You probably have an endearing story about your pet that many of us could identify with.  We have a beagle who loves to run a figure 8 around the house, skidding through the kitchen as he goes.  His eyes are as wide as a dog who's seen a ghost and it seems as if the ghost is chasing him.  Since I have given him a cookie every time he does that (he's trained me very well), when he finishes his laps (usually 5 or 6), he sits below the cookie jar and keeps pointing up to the jar with his nose.  The little silky mix that we have is the cheerleader/referee and barks constantly when the race is on.  I'm not sure, but I think the run is a beagle trait.  Maybe a beagle owner, or breeder knows for sure.  Anyway, we are very amused every time he does it and clap and cheer him on.

Keep you posted.
