Breaking News! The pitter patter of paws is definitely expected at Tarimoor, Tau was scanned today at the vets, and we saw two good clear outlines with the possibility of a few more tucked up under her ribs. Details of the litter can be seen on Tau's page, both parents are fully health tested, the litter is mainly from show lines, but Whiskey has produced some offspring with nice ability. There is also the possibility of all three colours in this litter.
Tarimoor Art is pleased to announce that 10% of all money raised from pet portrait commission work, will be donated to four charities, for any orders received from the 1 October 2011. Any amount will be split equally between:
Doris Banham Dog Rescue
Equine Market Watch Sanctuaries UK
Labrador Retriever Rescue Southern England
Happy Staffy Rescue
I will try and keep an ongoing tally of funds raised, I don’t think I’ll break any records but every little bit counts for all rescues, particularly the smaller ones at the moment, so fingers crossed it will all help, particularly as folk are now starting to order commissions as Christmas presents. Many thanks for your custom and help to raise funds.
Browse Products by Breed/Animal/Title - There are several new notelet designs available, and more in the pipeline, and, to make it easier to browse through the galleries, there is a list of all the titles available, split into different dog breeds and arranged by title where you can click on individual titles to view each card/notelet. It's still under construction, but I hope to have it finished soon.
