Project 365

A pharaoh hound!!! Yay! Another doodle in Gimp. Still trying out new ways of coloring and shading, playing around with layers . . . . .

I like how he turned out. Named him Kobal.

Project 365 - OMG AWESOME SAUCE!!!

OMG AWESOME SAUCE!!!!!!!

So there's this FABULOUS gal on DeviantArt who is simply BADASS! Her art is amazing!

She goes by Sin Common Stitches. You should check her out!

Anyway, she made these very cute and awesome zombie dog designs that you could basically "adopt" and do what you want with the design.

Yay!!!

I HAD to have one!!! I took design #2 (see all of them here)

ANNNNNNNNDDDDDDDD, I made my first drawing with him!!! I've named him Styx - after the river Styx.



I'll be doing more art featuring him! Woot!

My dog is a ruthless killer. Enjoys the rodents.

Icky, icky plague dog.

LOL Goodness!

I love the site I Can Has Cheezburger! I mean, love it! My hubby shakes his head as I laugh hysterically at adorable lolcats, loldogs, and every other awesome thing on that site. If you don't know what that site is, you're missing out. Seriously.

The premis of the site is quite simple. People make captions to adorable and funny pictures. Cats, dogs, other animals, celebrities, politics . . . . Another part of the site is their "fail blog". Hilarious!

I stumbled upon this site a few years ago and I check it about every other day! My addiction to it is almost as bad as my addiction to Etsy!

You can also upload your own pics and make captions for them! How fun is that?!




If you haven't been to the site, you need to go! It's worth it, trust me!

My Very Icky Dog :)

My dog Zan is quite icky. What makes her icky you ask? Lots of things! For one, she smells like doritos. If you're a dog owner, you know that smell. Really. Smell your dog's feet. Doritos. Or fritos. The difference with Zan is that I swear her whole body smells like that. It's her aura or something. When she was a pup, she had an extra toe on each hind foot. And each extra toe had 2 claws. The claws looked like spider fangs. Icky. And she thinks she's a cat. She'll arch her back and rub up against you, and she licks her paws and uses them to 'clean' her face. Icky.

Here she is looking especially icky! Aaawwwww, you can see her inner eyelid!

We've had her since she was 8 weeks old! She's 6 now and starting to show her age. Though she still acts like a pup. LOVES playing with my son (who's 2 1/2). It's pretty funny. She'll respond to 'Zan', 'icky', 'queen ick', 'icky dog', and 'squishy'. And my son Ayden calls her 'icky' as well!

So, when we got Zan, the lady told us she was a sheltie/boston terrier mix. She was very weird and wouldn't let us come to her house. We had to meet her in a Dennys parking lot. Just very odd. Looking at her, I can definitely see the boston terrier coloring, and she has a long snout and tail like a sheltie. But I've never been convinced. I think she looks like a rat terrier. AND, if you read about a rat terrier's temprament, it's Zan to a 't'. I joke with Jeremy (my hubby) that it's a conspiracy and Zan ia truly a rat terrier. So, look at Zan:

And then look at this picture of a rat terrier:

Okay, here's Zan again:

And a rat terrier:

See?! Conspiracy!

I've actually been thinking about doing DNA testing on her. It's really not that expensive. I'm curious to see what all of you think. Mutt? Or rat terrier?

Either way, she's my baby girl! (and the namesake of my etsy shop!)

My Icky Sculpture!

You didn't think I'd forget to show off my AWESOME sculpture of my dog, did you? TheMidnightOrange did such a fabulous job!!! Seriously, her sculpture looks just like my icky Zan! I can't wait until I get it! These pics are the ones that she took - I'll take my own pics and post them when I get my mini Zan.

She's got her huge bat ears, her skunk stripe, and she's even eating a blanket! Which is just fantastic! See, Zan is an eater of all things. (thankfully only her things) We give her old shirts for bedding and she finds nothing more satisfying than eating them. Not just chewing them - she eats them. I'm surprised she hasn't had a bowel obstruction!

Here's some pics of her in all her icky glory!

I love my icky dog, and I love my sculpture of my icky dog! TheMidnightOrange did such a wonderful job! Stop by her shop and show her some love!

Fun at the Park!

Today's weather was much more agreeable here in Colorado. And when it's nice out, I wanna BE out. And so does Ayden! He absolutely LOVES going to the park. So we grabbed Zan and walked to the park in our neighborhood.

Ayden had tons of fun on the swings, the slide, running, throwing snow, rocks, sticks, whatever he could get his hands on! He also enjoys covering Zan with dirt and sticks.

Here's some pics of him! On the swing, the slide, jumping whilst throwing sticks . . .

And of course, playing with Zan!
