When we were having these little fur babies a few years back we were pretty much set in not keeping anymore. Then along came Topo. Short and stocky, he has an attitude of iron yet melts when you hold him.
He is our little "mouse man" I called him, hence, that is how he got the name Topo, after little Topo Gigio from the Ed Sullivan show back in December of 1962.

I had to incorporate him into one of my Urban Collage Dog series which shows his perky bright and energetic personality.
Making handmade papers and searching for the right ones on my many adventures is quite time consuming. Yet, that is the joy in making these collage dogs.
I am also looking at adding some of my ephemera to these dogs as I love many types of collage. I would keep with the color schemes I have been using though as they are my favorite color combination on the planet.
I am currently working on more dogs and hope that they will someone else happy with their fur babies!
