Another Great Reason to be in the Studio
Life is indeed a journey of discovery. Each day brings some new event into our lives. Sometimes, I can sit back and think,….get back to work on a painting. Sometimes I can’t sit back! We just adopted a great pup from the Safe Harbor program in Lansing, Kansas.(http://safeharborprisondogs.com) Three dogs just seems wrong somehow, and we felt we needed another large dog to keep us company and to tell us when strangers were around!
Everybody knows that puppies are not easy, but we’ve been through this routine a few times and always survive! …the dog turns out great and they
Lola, our new rescue pup
We’ve been greatly impressed with what the new pup knows already from the work an inmate has already done. Of course we have accidents, and some growling (from our established pack)…but, we
are making it through and all of our brains are getting bigger!
Another plus to this is that my studio makes a great training room! The backyard is just one step out the back door of my studio. I can paint…or at least think of painting while keeping an eye on the new pup.

Safe Harbor is a super program, and I’m sure Lola will be a super addition to your happy family! Thanks for sharing so much of your lives with others who love pets!
Lola has only been here for 8 days…boy, time flies! She is doing very well and all of our dogs and cats are getting past “putting up with her” to just kind of ignoring her! yeah!
you got a new dog?!? what a cutie…good for you. looks like my second dog…same markings…even the black spikes on the front legs and the brown eyebrows. this explains the puppy painting that i love. congratulations!
