Could Your Pooch Be the Next ‘Pupcasso?’

We’ve heard about exotic animals turned artists that cover a canvass with their signature brush strokes. Well, have you ever considered how your Clifton Park pooch would fare with a paint brush in his mouth?
Believe it or not, there are already pups out there who have claimed celebrity doing just that.
A Lab from Long Island known as Dog Vinci (alias Dagger II) is just one such canine artist. See his video and story here at http://time.com/4269184/canine-artist-dog-vinci-painting/.
 
And then there’s Sammy the Painting Dog, courtesy of ShoreServiceDogs.com, whose YouTube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbkiYWzOraA is so captivating that it has me contemplating a similar career for my own pup.
 
A number of the dogs I read about online who have found their artistic side are also altruists whose artwork raises funds for worthy causes.
 
If your own pooch seems to have the temperament of a budding canine artist be sure to keep his process safe. Introduce him to his craft with non-toxic paint and canvass and a human nearby to monitor his progress every step of the way. After all, you wouldn’t want to have to view his masterpiece through an X-Ray lens. 
 
Consult with your pet’s Clifton Park area veterinarian before stocking up on art supplies to make sure what your pet uses is pet-safe.
