@DogFriendlyTrav @DIADetroit @akcMOD One of my people visited @akcMOD in 2019 and thought it was amazing too! (We've since included some of their works in our #ArtfulPup features). My family definitely needs to plan a return visit...with me! Thanks for the reminder!❤️ Do you have a favorite piece of canine art?

🎨🐕 Today’s #ArtfulPup scene comes to you from the @diadetroit and combines the subjects that Dutch artist Jan Baptist Weenix was perhaps best known for painting: ruins, dogs, and the Italian countryside. This circa 1649 piece is entitled, “Italian Peasants among Ruins.”

Hey—so did y’all know that New York has a whole museum devoted to dogs? It’s literally called The AKC Museum of the Dog, with painting after painting of dogs throughout history?! I just found that out and now I’m crying in the middle of their lobby

Stare down the week with the same determination as these Scottish Deerhounds! This gorgeous painting by Conradijn Cunaeus shows a pair of these formidable dogs resting by the fireplace. Perhaps taking it easy after a hunt or anxiously awaiting the next one?

Happy 140 birthday to the iconic Brooklyn Bridge! It opened to the public on this day 140 years ago connecting Manhattan and Brooklyn with a walking path for the first time. Enjoy this illustration of the NYC landmark with pet tourists by Kristin Doney also available in our shop!

Did you know the dog featured in the @WKCDOGS ’s logo was a real dog? His name was Sensation and he came from England as a foundation stud in 1876. See him in The Haunt of the Woodcock: Sensation and Bang Bang by John Martin Tracy c.1886 at the AKC MoD!

Can’t get enough of @WKCDOGS Best in Show winner, Buddy Holly? Neither can we—so we put this lovely sculpture by Audrey Fournier Mulligan (c.1990) out on view. If you’re in NYC pay him a visit!
