There was a shih tsu that stayed with us at my work for a little over a month while her mom closed on a house. I adored this little dog, and both her mom and the dog liked me the best. When I heard that this little dog was finally leaving us and going to her new home with her mom, I was happy and sad. So I did this quick little portrait for them, just kind of to show her how much I appreciated having her there. I wasn't there when they checked out, but I was told that she was so touched and cried when she saw it .
