Fifi, Frank, Buddy, Stout, Junebug, Rascal, they are our best friends and face it, we don’t own them, they own us.  They are always excited to see you when you get home. They are full of joy over the simplest things - a walk, a stuffed animal, the same meal every morning and you can’t deny that they seem to know when you’re feeling a little blue.

Our dogs and cats (even our fish, ferrets or pot-bellied pigs) are much more than pets. And while you probably have a million or so pictures of them, wouldn’t it be wonderful to capture their cute mug and their unique personality in a piece of fine art?

Another of the truly FANTASTIC items available in the Art a la Carte Auction (which starts online TOMORROW, 5/5 at 9am) is a commissioned portrait of your best pet friend by Addren Doss. She is a talented artist who creates vibrant oil paintings of landscapes and lap dogs alike. Take a look at her website to see her colorful, fun and sweet paintings of the animals we love.

How great would your pal look on an 8” x 8” painting that you’ll always have and love? It can be yours for the bidding! Check out the Art a la Carte Auction and let Addren Ross capture Fluffy’s floppy ears.
