Fur Wanted!
Lauren Davies of The Breeders project I wrote about on Monday emailed me asking for assistance. She is looking for fur from some specific dog breeds that she can’t seem to find through her local groomers. So, Collie, Borzoi, Afghan Hound, Sheltie, and Scottie owners, if you would like to donate your dog’s hair or fur to this super cool dog art show, contact Lauren. She will pay for shipping.

Bone of Art: Dog Pins
(Afghan Hound)I’m loving these adorable sterling silver hand-pierced dog pins by Mary of Bone of Art available on Etsy. I’ve picked out some rare breeds here since they haven’t received much face time on my blog, but know it was super hard to choose since she features over 70 breeds and each one is a work of dog art. Only $36 each!
(Tibetan Terrier)
(Skye Terrier)
(Bedlington Terrier)Of course I had to include this one in honor of Darby.
(Longhaired Dachshund)I love how Mary gets the expression just right with just a few simple lines. Excellent display too. The pins really pop (as they say on QVC) on the green grass. She also makes cat, rabbit, fish and frog pins and darling dog breed charms.
