DAY 12 - "WHO RESCUED WHO?" CHALLENGE

Today’s painting features Pepper, who is approximately 6 years old.  Pepper’s pet-mom Alison describes that this sweet girl had a rough and unfair start to life-- “She was the mama dog at a puppy mill for years”…” when they rescued her, she was missing a lot of hair, had rotted teeth, infections, and was a sad dog with a tail tucked between her legs”.  

Fortunately, Pepper’s life changed fom the better when she was  rescued by S.C.A.A.R. and placed in a wonderful foster home; she was later adopted by kind and caring Alison. As you can see in this painting, Pepper is no longer the sad dog she was she she was rescued.  Allison  shares the following:  “Now she is a proud, happy go lucky dog who is clumsy, silly, and loved. She has infinite patience for children and other animals, and is often found snoring away with a kitten tucked under her chin. Pepper's most amusing unique feature is how jiggly and awkward she looks when she runs around the yard, and how peace loving she is, carefully separating children or cats if they are fighting.”
