Bobblehead Sam, Bassett Hound Mixed Breed by Kimberly Kelly Santini

From the Painting a Dog a Day project, "Bobblehead (Sam)," 6" square, Basset Hound Labrador Retriever mixed breed pet portrait, acrylic on canvasboard, $249. Proceeds from the sale of "Bobblehead" will go to my shelter, the Oakland Pet Adoption Center. Inquiries may always come to me.
 
I asked for your rescue stories, and they are pouring in. Thank you! You may continue to send them, and I'll work the stories and faces into the daily paintings as I can. Submissions may come to ksantini@turtledovedesigns.com or get keyed as comments on the project's blog.
 
Sam was the featured "Shelter Pet of the Week" in his community's newspaper. His family saw that face and couldn't resist - Dad was immediately dispatched with specific directions to bring home Sam. And bring him home he did!! All 55 lbs of clowning, loveable "Bass-ador."
 
Thanks, as always, for sharing my paintings.
See you tomorrow,
Kim Santini
