Samson and his new monkey on his 1st birthday. Oh he is growing up so fast.

(One note on the status of the monkey ... in less than 24 hours he has managed to chew off one arm and one leg. He's still a silly puppy.)

Happy Birthday Little Moose!

I'm excited to announce our Summer Sale.

To celebrate summer, ScoutDog Studios is cutting all prices of its current collection of original paintings by 50 percent. In addition to paintings, all mugs are $3 and t-shirts are $5.

Supplies are limited to head on over to the online store and start shopping.

Remembering ScoutDog.



I can't believe that is has been a year since we lost Scout. We miss you Scout. And you will always be my inspiration and muse.

Enjoy a nice swim and chase some squirrels today!


Rainbow Bridge

Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to the Rainbow
Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play
together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or
maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and
times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss
someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the
distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the
group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in
joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again
caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone
from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together.

Take Your Dog To Work Day!



Even though everyday is Take your Dog to Work Day at ScoutDog Studios, Samson really doesn't look like he wants to work today.

Get a Fork and Help our Neighbors.

The Golden and Rottie are ready to enjoy these yummy pancakes. And you can too.

If you live in the Denver area, stop by Snooze, a great restaurant where my sister Leigh works. Today Snooze is donating 10 percent of all net sales to support our Northern neighbors in Weld County who were the recent victims of a Tornado Disaster.

Come eat and help thy neighbor! (And say Hi! to Leigh.)
