Sunday Morningby *Nautical-Nieky

Traditional Art / Drawings / Animals

Since four weeks I've been doing volunteer work at the local animal shelter, Sunday morning every week.
The very first time, the very first task was to clean out the puppy kennel. When we arrived there, I found a scene very much as pictured here.
There were two mothers with their own batch of puppies. The one directly opposite the door was a golden retriever with black puppies with white chests & paws, like this (the puppies' father is a big, bad, black dog of an uncertian breed). Her name's Boomer, I saw her first & walked her the most, that's why she's here.
I don't think the puppies were as active as this that week, but the next week they were. I just distinctly recall the one sitting aside, looking with its bit puppydog-eyes straight at me.
It was very touching to see, so I tried drawing it... fourth week I finally managed to get it right. I hope you in dA-land will enjoy seeing this as much as I did drawing it.
^{(yeah I know the scan's crap... >_<*)}

-sighs- There's a good probability neither of them will be still there when I get there tomorrow... the puppies should have new homes, the mothers back to their owners T__T but hopefully they'll spend the rest of their lives happy ^_^
