My Friend

This is my youngest daughter's little dog. Her name is Muffin, but she calls her-"My Friend." Update 9-5-07: "My Friend" just won "Best of the Show" in the pencil category at the Mid-East Tennessee Regional Fair. Update May 2008--"My Friend" was juried into the Dogwood Festival Fine Art Exhibit in Knoxville, Tennessee.
