Any painting that has a BOXER in the middle is OK by me!

Bulldog, Boxer, Collie, and Great Dane submit.

#5 Yikes I wonder how much A Friend In Need would go for. I believe Charles Johnson is the current owner.

#6 I can't wait for the "art critics" to blow some veins over this.
"Oh, my God! People are idiots! No wonder Bush won! I doubt Piss Christ would fetch that kind of price in this climate of fear and supression of dissent that hangs over this country in these dark, dark days!"
Trust me, it'll happen...

#7 actually this is like piss christ, in that both are kitsch. Neither challenge their viewers much.

#8 except that most dogs (beside a few yappy breeds) aren't offended by the poker paintings

#9 Come on, we’ve all known "someone" who had a copy of at least one of these! [eds -- I know it’s off topic! But, we do, since last night, have a new Top Dog.

#11 A former neighbor had two of them. Real sweet dogs, though like any hunting breed they are rather energetic.

#12 I have that picture collection in my garage, I've got five of them altogether. Mrs. JH won't let them in *her* house. Same w/the 8-pointer I got mounted, that's in the office at work. I learned not to piss off my polish princess too much.
