Wordless Wednesday: Rocco Illustrated

Havanese at 18 weeks

About a week ago, we won a super cool illustration at a Twitter party hosted by EventBarkers.com. That's the group started by our pals Paris at DogTipper and Carrie at All Things Dog Blog.


During the Twitter event, Nate Fakes, the amazing illustrator and cartoonist, posted the step-by-step illustration of Rocco as it progressed. It was so much fun to see it develop!

Here's the final illustration, drawn from the photo we submitted at the top of this post! I love it and think it captures Rocco perfectly! Visit Nate's website to find out how you can get your own illustration!

The Twitter event we attended was all part of the EventBarkers.com Super Dog Sunday photo contest to benefit Petfinder Foundation. Find out how you can enter the photo contest here!

Thanks to Paris and Carrie for hosting this fun event!

  13. I recall the phrase, "mah'lay-bonz" which I think meant; "you're a pain in the stomach. " Similar to this phrase was "doo-zee-pots," which now, as an adult who speaks Italian, I have come to know is a corruption of "Tu sei pozzo," "You are crazy." .
