Need something.

[distantvampire]

I need someone to do a VERY special commision for me.

it's a tribute to my dog Brandy, who gave us all a very bad scare earlier this week.

she's started to hit old age, I belive, and at 12 years old, I can understand. (it, however, doesn't make things better) she's gotten to a point where she cant keep her legs hardly, she stands and then topples over at times. she's on steroids now, and they seem to help her. But I cant help but feel like its the start of the end.

I've had her for as long as I can remember, and this is killing me.

She's a lab mix, a soft yellow...and she's been my best friend in the world forever.

Im looking for one of my artistic friends who will do this commision for me, so I can have something of her forever.

if anyone is interested, I can provide more pictures, and I'd be so grateful....

money is also not an option at all. I'll pay anything, but it will have to be gradual payments if it's more than like...50. I only make about 400 a month, and that's if Im really lucky.

I have no artistic talent whatsoever, but I just wanted to post to say that I know how you're feeling, probably almost exactly.

My dog, Boone, is going to be 15 in June. He's been my best friend and companion since I was 6 years old.
He too is experiencing leg weakness, and sometimes when he goes outside his hind legs will just give out and he'll have to pull himself along on his forelegs.
He's also almost completley deaf and losing his eyesight.

The vet says he's actually in pretty good health for his age, but I too feel in the bottom of my heart time is definetly not his friend, and it kills me to think about sometimes.

Just wanted to let you know if you ever want to talk about it, I'm here and know exactly how you're feeling, I think. You've been such a good friend through all my problems, I just want you to know I'll be there if you ever want to talk to someone who understands.

what a beautiful sweet little girl! I love her face, such purity and light radiates from her!

What kind of a special commission are you looking for precisely? something digital? real media?? and did you have any specific ideas in mind?

awe, I know how you feel. I lost the dog I grew up with a year or so ago... it's hard. Just remember the good times, and treasure the time you've still got. And don't be ashamed of a few tears. It helps, in the end. <3
