piece is "PEG." The work is done
on black paper or board and is 15.5"
wide and 12" tall. The outside dimensions
of the frame are 18" wide and 14"
tall. It's hard to tell if it is a drawing
or painting, but it is very, very nice! It
will make a great and unique addition to
your Eskie collection!

Bedtime Story Book For Dogs
-Opening bid $6
Donated by Sandy London and Eskies Gizmo
& Whitney |
item # GA_028  |
Bedtime Stories for Dogs by Leigh Anne Jasheway,
hardback book measuring 6 ¾" X 5 1/8".
Here's a book that will make dog owners sit
up and beg for more. It's a hilarious volume
for pampered pets and their human parents.
From tales like "The Three Little Pugs"
to "Snow White and the Seven Chihuahuas",
Bedtime Stories entertains everyone who's
ever had -or loved- a spoiled canine. The
tales are written just the way dogs like
things - they're short and simple, they have
happy endings, they usually involve food,
and they frequently refer to things that
smell really awful. Each one of these stories
was proofed ( and woofed) by the author's
two Wiener dogs: "If they didn't five
a story two paws up and two tails wagging,
it was back to the drawing board," she
says.
