   Weimaraner Dogs are also known as Silver or Gray Ghost. They originated in Germany in the 1800's and were bred from pointing breeds, bloodhounds, and mastiffs. They were bred to be hunters and have a distinctive grey color. Dwight D. Eisenhower owned a Weimaraner.  They look so soft and regal too. I also read that they are very smart and need lots of exercise. 

    I have come to the end of my challenge and it has been a grand adventure meeting new furry friends on my easel, sharing on Facebook, and finding new collectors. Thank you to everyone who

participated. Time to schedule my massage and pop open some champagne! Hope you have something fun planned for the weekend!

How can you say no to such a face? I know her "Mom" Eva is crazy about this pit bull terrier. I bet she gets lots of treats when she looks up like this! Hope your week if off to a great start.

Purchase Information

 This little fella is quite dramatic striking a post in the sunlight. He looks quite handsome and I bet he is equally charming! Hope you are having a fantastic weekend! I just picked up some takeout Italian and guess what I am going to do? Well, I thought I would paint! Only six more days for the challenge so if you haven't sent me a photo of your special friend, now is the time to do it. I have two ready to go already but four more spots. :-)

Love this guy and with his sweet expression and all that fur! He lives with his family in Virginia Beach with two other dogs. His "Mom", Amy is a very talented lady who shares her love of knitting and does beautiful work! We met while both teaching at Michael's sharing what we love to do with others. Hope I have captured your Bailey!
