Title: 77 Pounds of Baby
Artist: Lauren Schlesselman
Medium: Acrylic on canvas
Dimensions: 10" x 10"
Animal Depicted: Tonks
Tonks is an actual baby. He came to us with a very small wound on his paw. We see so many brave dogs and cats with the most horrific wounds. But this boy could really milk it - he just couldn't believe he had an injury. He refused to walk, so the clinic staff had to take him out in a stroller. When he would get back inside, he would climb in everyone' laps and just roll over for belly rubs. He never wanted to go back to his spot. He would just lay there, begging for nonstop petting. He was a 77-pound BABY, and we just adored him. Tonks eventually seemed to really like his spot in the clinic, but we knew he needed to be out in the shelter where he could make friends and hopefully find his forever home. He is THE BEST boy. He is well mannered, rides great in the car, and he knows basic commands. Our volunteers love taking Tonks out on adventures, and we just KNOW his forever family is going to find him soon!
