A dog with a story

1

I haven’t been posting much lately but haven’t been drawing much as well. I finally started my 3th coloured pencil drawing for a very special mission.
A friend of mine recently lost her husband and one of his his last wishes was for her to adopt a handicapt dog named Thor. Thor is in a dog wheel chair and lives in a special shelter for dogs with handicaps and other troubeled dogs. I was touched by the look of the dog and of course the sadness of my friend, so I decided to try and draw the dog. It’s a really difficult one for me with all the different colours of fur but still think it’s a great gift for her when it’s finished.

The drawing is finished and was send to my friend. She was really happy with the drawing and moved to tears. It was the first time a drawing left my house and it was hard to say goodbye… :sweat_smile:

Hi Lolita -
WOW, what a great drawing and wonderful gift. I own 2 German shepherds right now and have had several others in the past. I’ve never drawn one but hopefully I will find the time in the future. Thanks for sharing.
