"Fonzie"


I used to work at a store that was visited on Wednesdays by a dog that in typical chihuahua fashion is a little nuts. His name is Fonzie and he loves to race around and be chased, goes absolutely ballistic when he sees another dog, even one ten times his size, and hates kids. He will let kids pet him, then his lip starts twitching, and then someone gets their fingers bitten. It's amazing how human a dog's emotions can be. One Halloween, his mom dressed him in a wizard outfit. Instead of being his usual frisky self, he found a corner and lay down with his head on the floor looking absolutely sick. I took off the costume and immediately he was prancing and jumping around. Acrylic on canvas, 24" by 20".
