Tanner, Northwest Ohio's Hospice Service Dog


Tanner was at Northwest Ohio’s Hospice Care Center when my mom was there as she was declining. To try and repay the Hospice and their team of caring staff, I created the essence of their service dog Tanner. Tanner is a beautiful Golden Retriever that has been with Hospice for many years. He is such a caring and loving angel to all the patients, they all want to praise him with treats. When you walk into the patients rooms, there are signs asking them to not feed Tanner. He is just a little over weight. There will always be a soft spot for Tanner and I was thrilled to be able to do this for the center. I hope they enjoy the painting as much as I enjoyed painting Tanner.

Tanner was done on 300 lb Arches watercolor paper. The finished size is 15 X 22.
