BONES - Helping Beagles Find Their Way Home

Beagles Of New England States (B.O.N.E.S.) rescue is one of our long standing AHA supported rescues. They do wonderful work helping hundreds of gorgeous Beagles of all ages find new homes.
All of their rescues go into foster care, usually with other beagles and begin adapting to the family life that some of them have never really had. They all do very well in that eventually homes are found and they post the most WONDERFUL stories of success on their site.

MEET "DEBO"

READ ALL ABOUT HIM!

DEBO is 5 year old male Good with dogs, cats, and kids over 8
This very cute, handsome fellow is Debo. He is a 5 year old pup who is looking for someone to share his world with. Debo is a happy go lucky guy, who absolutely love people and thinks there is nothing better in the whole world than to share a snuggle with his humans. Debo is very playful and love all toys! He also loves other dogs, although he can be a bit rough when playing with his doggy friends. He gets along just fine with cats too.

Debo is very energetic, so because of his high energy level, we do not recommend a home with small or young children; he would never hurt them, but could accidentally knock them over during play time.
Debo is blind in one eye and receives daily eye drops; it may be necessary to remove the eye at some point.
If you are looking for a happy, energetic pup to share your life with, take a look at Debo!

Artist note: It was serendipity that I was looking through BONES beagles up for adoption for some inspiration to paint new pieces for the rescue when I found Debo. At the VERY same time I was printing out a bunch of images for studio refs one of my friends at BONES was emailing me pics of the annual Beagle Bash that they just had. The image above is one of hers and she wrote the caption. She also told me that she had just heard from the good woman who pulled him from a shelter in TN and got him into foster care through BONES...everyone was remarking how well he has done...now he just needs that new family to love him all the days of his life.
PLEASE PASS IT ON!
Lets get this beauty his own family!

Behind the Scenes - ART THAT HELPS!

So much work goes on behind the scenes that it is almost too much to mention.

But I will.

Art Helping Animals is a very small fellowship...less than 20 artists at any given time that work their brushes off to help homeless animals in need.

We have contributed over 68,000.00 and counting to help shelter animals by donating a portion of our art sales to non-profit rescues coast-to-coast and around the world.

We do it "ONE ANIMAL AT A TIME, ONE BRUSH STROKE AT A TIME"

and many people say it must be "fun" to paint...to create art.

Yes....that is the easy part.

The rest of the time: we are working behind the scenes, each in our own way. We paint for our rescues as listed on our HOME PAGE http://www.arthelpinganimals.com/

We keep our own web venues going with updates and current work. (see the main site for ARTISTS list)

We work with our own favorite personal charities and rescues unaffiliated with AHA but "friends of AHA" as we have a network of loyal friends that support homeless animals with art and even more donations.

Some of the artists participate in exhibits around the country, galleries, art competitions.

Some of us represent AHA on The DAILY PAINTER'S GALLERY week after week.

It is a labor of love that we do.

It takes dedication, real and true comittment and energy...the work BEHIND the easel is the elbow grease it takes to keep all the brushes in the air, to have something worthy to present to the public that will, ultimately, make a collector happy to hang fine art in their homes or work spaces and help save a life.

Continue our journey with us as ART HELPING ANIMALS goes forward to work to help the neediest get a second chance.

We are currently working to help our Focus Rescue Group SALUKI TREE OF LIFE ALLIANCE

with a collection of art from all the artists of Art Helping Animals...Please take a look at what is still available. All work sold will benefit the rescue! (link below)
