I’m going in alphabetical order based on the American kennel club plus my own dogs for their birthdays. I also wanna do historical dogs like Laika and Togo when those relevant dates come around.
We’ll find out how powerful my dog love is if I can get through drawing all 250+ dogs in the AKC.
Special little boy Jesse turned 1 back on March 17th. Yes he is named after Breaking Bad Jesse Pinkman and for those curious he’s a Australian Cattle Dog (aka Blue/Red Heeler) mixed with a Pembroke Welsh Corgi.
My first pet portrait commission of 2024 complete! These are hand painted on 3 inch (7.6 cm) diameter ceramic ornaments with acrylics. Top left is Lucy, middle right is Jack, and bottom left is Luna. I have not painted ornaments in a long time because the place where I order them had been out of stock for over a year! They still are, and I had to switch to a different company to get these! I hope I get to do many more this year, they are fun to paint! It is a challenge to get details on such a small surface so I have to use very small thin brushes.
The American Eskimo Dog combines striking good looks with a quick and clever mind in a total brains-and-beauty package. Neither shy nor aggressive, Eskies are always alert and friendly, though a bit conservative when making new friends. The American Eskimo Dog comes in three sizes - standard, miniature, and toy - standing as tall as 19 inches at the shoulder or as short as 9 inches. Distinctive traits include a dense, sparkling white coat with a lion-like ruff around the chest and shoulders; a smiling face, with black nose, lips, and eye-rims that convey a keen, intelligent expression; and a plumed tail carried over the back. Some Eskies have markings with the delicious color name 'biscuit cream.' They move with a bold and agile gait. Eskies are social animals and can develop problem behaviors when neglected or undertrained'¿they insist on being part of family life. Among the most trainable of breeds, the clever, kid-friendly Eskie practically invented the phrase 'eager to please.' (source)

MILO!
My mom's new puppy is named Milo ( a 5 month American Eskimo dog), and he's a real sweetie. He loves to play all the time, loves other puppies and loves to eat! He's a little goofball and I love him.
