I needed a special Christmas gift for my husband last year and Cathy did a wonderful job on what I needed. My husband’s bulldog was 11 years old and I knew he was not going to be around long. Cathy had done a painting of her sister’s dog, Zebby, so I thought that would be a perfect gift for him. I sent her some pictures of him and my female bulldog, Reba who is also 11 years old, we all know how much we love our animals. Butchie loved looking at hummingbirds through the window and he got so excited, it was like he was in a trance. He would just stare at them all day long. Cathy painted that in the picture. His eye looks so real. The one I sent her of Reba was wonderful too. Reba gets so excited when my little girl gets loud, she will perk up her ears and her eyes get real big. Cathy captured that in the painting also.

We lost Butch on July 2 2011 it was a very sad day for us but we have a very special painted picture of him to remember for all of our lives.
