Poor Don





Poor Don.  We haven't met Don - but we feel sorry for him.  My human met  Don on-line.  No - it wasn't an on-line dating service.  That's a topic for a different blog.  No - she was surfing,for someone to do a metal sign for outside our house.  A welcome sign.  Partly because we don't SOUND very welcoming when the doorbell rings.  So she got this "idea" about what she wanted.  And somehow she found poor Don.   She texted Don with her idea and he agreed to design her sign.  Of course, you know the sign has to have a PON and a Picard.  She wanted silhouettes of the two breeds.  At first,  Don couldn't REALLY understand what my human wanted.   So she sent him a draft drawing of HER version of what she was thinking.  Which wasn't very good.  The sign would have probably been 15 feet around.  But from the poor draft, Don KIND of figured out what she wanted.  So he worked on his draft.  And the first draft from Don came back and the PON and the Picard were the same size.  Actually the PON was bigger.  I personally thought that was fine - but my human being the fussy one, asked that the PON be reduced in size.  Which Don did.  And he sent along the next draft.  And it looked great.  But she STILL thought the two dogs were too close in size.   So she sent Don photos of us guys and even the standard heights for our two breeds.   I'm SURE poor Don was shaking his head by this point.  Talk about crazy dog lady.  So he adjusted the draft AGAIN.   And he sent it again.   And NOW it appears perfect.

So now we wait for the finished product - which we will show all of you.

What is it with humans wanting to display our images everywhere?  Pictures, paintings, figurines, placemats, fridge magnets, socks, jewelry.... We dogs don't wear collars with little humans on them.  Humans are just SO odd.

Have a good one.  Peace and paws up!
