JAKE

6" x 8"

When we first got Jake from a shelter with his buddy Bay we thought he was a mixed breed of some sort but one day I came accross a picture of a dog that looked exactly like he does and it turns out he is a Korean mountain dog  or Jindo.  The Jindo is the 53rd national treasure of Korea noted for their loyalty and intelligence.

Bay is a shy Chocolate Lab but they make a wonderful pair who are a constant delight.  They are devoted to each other, but have entirely different personalities.  Maybe you can tell from this painting of Bay how they differ.
