From around Christmas. That's Rufus (our dog), and my Mom's Christmas tree.
More dogs, dogs are good. Left is Rufus, right is Schaeffer (parents' dog). You have to be quick to draw dogs at Christmas, as they don't stay in exactly the same place for very long. p.s. - Can you tell how crotchety Schaeffer can be? I think even just his posture in the top drawing speaks of "Bugger off and leave me alone." But it could be just because I know him so well.
