‘Strokes’
@t_roxburgh
mixed dog hair
Together, we brush as an act out of love;
you hold one end whilst i hold the other.
A ceremony, a ritual, an event for the day
to be done for hours until you no longer wish to play.
Pat pat pat, gnashes out
and slobber on slow decline.
All these strokes you deserve;
for simply being mine.
Golden locks, silky curls,
in such unity they twirl.
SUCH a good boy and of course, a good girl !!
An admiration of our love language to man’s best friend, through the act of a brush stroke.
Dog hair used…
Afghan Hound, Borzoi, Cockapoo, Cocker Spaniel, Chow Chow, Golden Retriever, Huskey, Newfoundland-Landseer, Pomeranian, Pyranese Mountain Dog, Samoyed

Many thanks to Theresa for the work and the install this morning ❤️
5 days, 20,000 dogs and 160,000 visitors from over 51 different countries naturally equals a bit of a waiting game. Or, sometimes the perfect excuse to snap a snooze or a cuddle. Crufts 2025

Alas, not forgetting you;
four thousand seven hundred and fifty three
walnuts for me!
Just in time for tea.
