Up for Adoption: Sleepy Puppy Dog Beads

I solved my photography problem! I made the little puppies a tiny plaid blanket to lay on—perfect contrast to my crackled white wood—and the puppies were so comfy!

Come and meet them:

Little sleepy tri-color Jack Russell Terrier

Little sleepy tan and white Rat Terrier (As you know Rat Terriers hold a very special spot in my heart—I had to make one.)

 

Little sleepy Rottweiler (As a little kid growing up I wanted a fierce protective dog, something huge—Rottweilers were on that list.)

 

 Little sleepy black Pomeranian

Little sleepy red and white Pit Bull

Little sleepy chocolate Pomeranian

Little sleepy blue and white Pit Bull

They're all available for adoption in my Etsy shop here.

And finally…

My first custom order dog portraits are available! I left two little Jack Russells unpainted so I can custom paint them to match someone's special pup. I've wanted to do custom pets for ages, so I'm super excited to finally have these ready to go!

More puppy dogs are on the way soon. What's your favorite dog breed? Did you grow up with a dog? What kind is the puppy dog that fills your everyday life with happiness and love now? I'm taking suggestions. :-)

(And yes, new sleepy kitties are in the works too.)

And then she was distracted…

You probably don't know it, but sleepy puppy dogs can be oh-so stubborn and difficult to photograph!

Or maybe I should blame my camera… or my photographer (me, at the moment)…

Or the fact that these little puppies are mostly white and so is my usual Etsy shop backdrop—can you see the camouflaged puppies? Not so great for a listing photo.

Yeah, I was getting kinda grouchy and frustrated—making beads is so much easier than photographing them!

And then there was this:

Sleeping…

Waking up to say hi…

Asking so sweetly…

And sleeping again (on my lap this time)…

How can I resist?

I didn't.

When a once wild (feral) kitty asks for a nap on your lap, there's no answer but yes. Seeing that total trust and love in his bright eyes and hearing his soft rumbling purr is enough. It puts a smile on your face and joy in your heart.

*and she melted*

Photographing to be continued…

Sleepy Dog Beads!

It's photo shoot day for the puppies.

A long nap is always a good idea on days like this!

They'll be available for adoption very soon!
