BARDLEDOO #4 of 50
8x8 oil on canvas panel
#4 in the 50/50 series is Bardledoo, a sweet little baby who had a very, very short life. Bardledoo died last month of an unknown virus, but lived life to the fullest in her 4 short months as a cattle working dog and a great buddy to a family of longhorn ranchers. As a cattle dog in training, one of her favorite things was to play with the baby calves. She was particular about people, but was loyal to her favorite person her dad, Mark. Bardledoo's fav foods consisted of june bugs and ice cubes, yum, yum!

Poor baby...It so makes me sad to learn of anyone losing their precious pets. I know I still cry for missing my big boy, Gio. Bardledoo is a beautiful little puppy and I know his owner will cherish this piece forever, as I do my Gio piece. He is just gorgeous!
Loving this pet series! Where do you find the time!
