Great ideas, all!<br /><br />Hey Alison, thx for the info on SCAD. Last year I went to Nepal to see the Kathmandu Animal Treatment Centre, a very successful animal shelter because I considered starting an animal shelter in Cambodia. http://cambodiacalling.blogspot.com/2008/04/dogs-in-nepal-and-cambodia.html<br /><br />I have 5 Cambodian dogs myself - you can see photos of our family here :) http://cambodiacalling.blogspot.com/2008/12/our-family.html<br /><br />cheers<br />dianaDiana Sawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14446054467095216782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34932518.post-17823607082138800192009-09-26T05:42:20.927+07:002009-09-26T05:42:20.927+07:00oh, he's adorable! ...but i might not buy a pa...oh, he's adorable! ...but i might not buy a palm leaf doggie maybe because of my perception that the palm leaf would dry out or not look so nice over time... Is there a way to make him out of stiffened fabric or maybe to give him some clothes that could make him seem more "cuddly"? He really has a very cute shape!annamatichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17562006683150557350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34932518.post-43478543788144276112009-09-26T01:39:00.869+07:002009-09-26T01:39:00.869+07:00i'm an opinionated git, but then you asked.

[grin].<br /><br />might it be possible to make a button sorta thing out of the same material and paint it black? keeps to the whole theme better, i'd imagine. i feel sticking on bits of paper or drawing eyes will spoil the attraction of the piece.feddabonnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08365326300429832990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34932518.post-55979861238481092462009-09-25T19:56:43.817+07:002009-09-25T19:56:43.817+07:00That dog is so cute!

I would definitely buy one although I'm not sure how I'd get it home without it being crushed in my luggage. <br /><br />On a somewhat related topic, have you ever heard of the SCAD organization? I am a big fan of their work. I keep fantasizing about adopting one of the cute dogs on their website but it's just not feasible right now.<br /><br />http://www.scadbangkok.org/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34932518.post-41921368255578872072009-09-25T16:29:03.555+07:002009-09-25T16:29:03.555+07:00How about using a seed like the ones used in neckl...How about using a seed like the ones used in necklaces and threading it right through the middle so the knot becomes the pupil that way it stays all natural and recycled?Tanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13388362742170805414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34932518.post-15889752643476996172009-09-25T15:19:31.243+07:002009-09-25T15:19:31.243+07:00great job!great job!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
