Win a Cartoon Illustration of Your Fido

Meet Whitley
Nate Fakes; remember that name. I'm starting to see it all over Facebook; he's getting around. Nate's work is such fun; did you see my review?

Today I'm going to offer up a heartwarming piece of art to 2 of you--your very own pets.  Nate will take your photos and create a memory for you that will last far beyond your pets' years with you. You'll receive an 8 x 10 hi res portrait (a $60 value!) to treasure as I do my Xena's portrait that is on the Rafflecopter below. 

Now if you just can't wait, you do have options. Visit Nate's site to see your choices and place your order. Say hi to Xena while you're there. As of today, she was still gracing the page linked here.

If you'd rather take your chances at winning, the Rafflecopter entry form is at the bottom of this post. It's super easy and I hope you'll enjoy the process of entering. Have fun with it! If you don't see the form below, simply click on the post title and it will reappear. It has a tendency to hide sometimes, but you can coax it back out with one click. 

Entries will be accepted through October 11 and the winners will be announced on the evening of Friday, October 12. Good luck to you all!

I have not been paid to review Nate's work, but did receive a .jpg of my dog, Xena, for review. The thoughts included in the review are my own. This offer is available to readers everywhere except where prohibited by law. No purchase is required to enter.

Grooming, brushing and playtime balanced with proper food and lots of cuddles!

Regular vet visits, grooming, walking, playing ball, swimming and feeding a good kibble. Not over feeding in treats to make sure they are not made in China.

I would love a protrait of Bandit



Dawn said...

First of all, great art!!! Secondly, how do I maintain my dog's health? In so many ways. We walk and play daily, we eat healthy food, maintain a good weight, teeth get brushed daily, nails trimmed weekly, monthly heartguard, vet visits as needed, etc.



Dawn said...

Ha! I love the cartoon of the dog playing fetch in a video game on Nate's site. Too funny!



Kat E. said...

LOVE this giveaway!! Quality food is #1 in our house, and tooth brushing is super important too! Oh, the lucky dog who wins this one!!!



Kat E. said...

Other than Xena (of course) I love Whitley too ~ so expressive!

Julie said...

I maintain Dumpling's health by measuring out his food/treats and giving him plenty of exercise!



larrielle said...

I maintain Bentley's health through daily walks, play dates at the park and outings with our Charlotte Small Dog Society group, lots of TLC, check ups with the vet, grooming, and a nutrional diet (snacks and being fed 2x a day)



larrielle said...

Nate is VERY artistic! Would love to win a picture of Bentley to put up in the house



Cynthia Downer said...

Feeding them well, preventing parasites while also using the least amount of chemical pesticides as I can(not always easy since Jack is VERY allergic to fleas), I give them Omega 3 Fish Oil supplements, frequent training to keep their minds young, and exercise of course!



Cynthia Downer said...

I love them all, but this one made me smile especially because Midget has the same Silver Paws tag: http://natefakes.carbonmade.com/projects/4209927#9 Thanks for the giveaway, I'm really hoping to win.



Mary Witter said...

I love them all, too, but especially love his English Goal Setter print. (Imagine how much fun Nate would have doodling a doodle!)



Unknown said...

Feeding them right once a day so they don't get too overweight



Unknown said...

I really like the portrait of Douglas the cat



Olivia R said...

She gets plenty of activity as my service dog, but i also make sure she gets off duty time to,just sit in the sun if she wants or run around each day. she is loved and is never allowed to,be around people arguing.

She eats a grain free diet of Acana Ranchlands, Zukes treats, Platos Eos Grain Free, Fromm treats, and Sojos.

I scale her teethm brush her and love her so



Olivia R said...

Ha...the custom cartoon of your pet



Rick said...

Vet checks, supplements, teeth cleanings, walks, fresh food and water...



Rick said...

I like Whitley's eyes.



Nancy said...

We do everything we can. We clean and brush teeth. Feed quality food. Play. Fresh water.



Nancy said...

I love Abbey's smile.



shannon said...

the thing i do most to keep my dog healthy, other than take her to the vet regularly, is make sure I brush her teeth at least three times a week. She doesn't mind it because its liver toothpaste lol



shannon said...

my fave is the happy hour st bernard lol



Misty said...

We play, we get dirty, then we get clean. We eat LOTS of fresh fruit and veggies. We scrape plaque and brush. Visit the vet and do what ever else we need to do.



Misty said...

'Rochelle' India Ink with Pen is my fav. I love black and whites.



nightowl said...

We maintain our dogs' health by feeding high quality dog food and making sure they get enough daily exercise. Also regular vet checkups.

I like the Watercolor Your Pet.

Christine Aiello said...

I maintain my dog's health by providing her with daily vitamins plus skin and coat vitamins, plus joint vitamins. I feed her the amount that the doctor has told me she should have every day. I take her for groomings every 4 weeks and she goes to the vet for regular checkups and for anything that I think might be wrong. Plus she goes for walks all the time and to the doggie park and plays in the house all the time.



Christine Aiello said...

I love the watercolor photo of the dog! I would love one of those!



Danielle said...

Giving him dog treats only and no human food!



Kittie Kat E said...

I keep my senior girl healthy by feeding super healthy food (she eats raw and a canned/dry combo) and by trying to keep her active (she has really bad back legs so she cant do much).



Kittie Kat E said...

Whitley is my favorite piece.. I just think it's most realistic looking piece (like a photograph!)



LuLu and Wally said...

I brush their teeth every day!



Unknown said...

I maintain my all my dogs health with plenty of walks and playful exercise! A happy dog is a healthy dog! ;-}



Unknown said...

What a good looking lab Jordan is! Your detail with all of them is incredible! ;-}



Lisa F. said...

I maintain my dogs and cats health by constantly monitoring their eating and drinking habits, their behavior, and regular vet checkups. I also am proactive with one of my dogs with monthly acupuncture (he has been diagnosed with degenerative myopathy disease).



CRichman said...

I maintain Bullets healthy by keeping a handle on the amount of treats he gets and by feeding him organic foods



Phoenix said...

I love the lab puppy picture.



Phoenix said...

I take care of my furry ones by feeding them healthy holistic food, lots of play, lots of fresh air & plenty of snuggling!



Amy Orvin said...

Taking them to the vet regularly, watshing their weight,bathing and grooming once a week.

I like the 'Whitley' Ink with digital coloring

Annette said...

Dolce's pretty tri colored head would make such a cute cartoon!



Anonymous said...

We maintain our furkids' health with lots of love and affection, premium food, fresh water, exercise, regular grooming (homestyle), and lots of attention. Actually they are all very spoiled, but they love us back and still mind us pretty well. I'd be lost without them!



Anonymous said...

Tough decision, but I think the eyes on Whitley won me over. I'd like to have my late Daphne drawn, and she had those beautiful hypnotic Border Collie eyes that were captivating. I would love to be able to draw like Nate.



Lisa F. said...

I like the "English Goal Setter". Pretty funny.



Kristen said...

We feed good quality food, get exercise and brush teeth.



Kristen said...

My favorite is the dog called Abbey.



Dog Pack Snacks said...

Proper nutrition is the key as well as taking care of her teeth.



Jennifer Hill said...
