Re: false pointingIhave a setter

Beautiful Portrait of my Llewellyn

My golf buddy and good friend is a gifted artist. After some prodding and begging, I finally got him to agree to paint my boy Whip. He's just adding some final touches and I should get it next week. I'm beyond pleased with it. Whip is a very special dog.
