Poor Cricket. Oh My Goodness 😮😢 You did a wonderful memorial of this baby.

[@SandyAllnock1]

I know....she didn't deserve that :(

[@MelissaMizzesC]

Beautiful tribute to Cricket. My heart breaks for what she had to go through.

[@SandyAllnock1]

Mine too....doggos deserve much better.

[@charlottesmom]

The only saving grace was it must have been fast. I wish she had gone to a shelter and gotten a second chance, all she really needed was understanding and love, most “vicious” dogs were abused and are just defending themselves.

[@SandyAllnock1]

@@charlottesmom every dog deserves a second chance. They might need a special home to rehabilitate them. But when it’s a puppy, there’s no excuse to just put it out of your own misery. That dog deserved so much better.

[@charlottesmom]

@@SandyAllnock1 I so agree!! 🐶🩷

[@reneloper9074]

Sandy any time you want to get on a soapbox about the health and welfare of a dog please shout it from the tree tops. I will support you every time.

[@charlottesmom]

I’d have adopted this sweet gal, she didn’t deserve what that witch did to her!! Luckily she’s getting judged in the public’s eye and it’s brought to light the plight of some doggos, and how horrid some “owners” are. You did a great job with this tribute to that sweet little one. ❤

[@SandyAllnock1]

I hope Cricket's story inspires more adoption :) :) :)

Beautiful. beautiful dog, Sandy! Sad, sad story. A lot of people give up to quickly on things. I have a tulip bulb in a planter that grows leaves every spring but never flowers. I have a friend who would have dug it up the first year and tossed it in the trash. I just left it alone and waited. This year, after nearly ten years of waiting, it bloomed! A bright, sunny yellow tulip to remind me that sunny dayswill eventually return, I named the tulip Leo the Late Bloomer. ☺ Moral: Never give up!

[@SandyAllnock1]

What a great end to that tulip story!

[@junebovenzi]

What a sweet memorial to Cricket. Rest in peace Cricket. 🌈🌈🌈

[@craftyShirleyG]

I've heard Cricket's story. And it saddens me so much. I purchased one of the prints. ❤

[@SandyAllnock1]

💔💔💔

[@deborahcorreale352]

Beautiful drawing, Rest in peace sweet Cricket

[@joseeguimond4484]

Just wanted to let you know that you are very talented! I love looking to your video because it is very inspiring. Your drawings always gorgeous whatever media you are using.

[@SandyAllnock1]

Thank you so much 😀

[@ink.therapy.designs]

Incredible drawing and thank you for honoring this sweet pup!

[@SandyAllnock1]

I'm glad you like it❤️

[@wendystudioscrap9673]

The power of artist ! This is crazy.

[@ruthmoore1680]

Thank you, Sandy, for highlighting the tragic death of Cricket. My first thought when I heard this story was, why didn’t she just take the puppy to a shelter? As you said, please give dogs a chance to find the perfect forever home.

[@sherrywoods4630]

It was so interesting watching how you move from stage to stage and build the layers. I know I’ve seen it so many times, but that negative drawing is so cool. Still makes my brain hurt, but so cool. Ohmigosh. Cricket’s story breaks my heart. 😢

[@SandyAllnock1]

Poor lil pupper....she didn't deserve what she got. :(

[@karenzemko6518]

Just an amazing drawing for such a wonderful purpose. I can't imagine doing such a thing to ANY animal, but then brag about it??? How sick is that. Bless you Sandy, for making a positive out of a negative.

[@SandyAllnock1]

Thank you so much 😀 I hope this inspires more people to adopt a dog❤️

[@ChantelleArts]

This is so sweet, I love it ☺☺

[@silverleafmaple]

❤❤❤

[@deborahreeder7374]

AMEN. If you aren't happy with an animal, give it to someone else who can love it. 😻🐕🐖🐇🐦

[@DarciBarker-lu8gi]

Lovely drawing even though you didn’t like the paper. Whoever owned Cricket is despicable!

[@SandyAllnock1]

There's a link to the story on my blog. SO sad :(

[@mpp2498]

Lovely drawing & memorial. I would have preferred not to know of her demise. It made me too sad to focus on your instructions. I'm pretty sure those who are going to dispose of an animal like this are not going to change their mind nor their practice, so it seems unnecessary in an art. If you feel the need to advocate, perhaps in another forum? Please/ thanks.

[@SandyAllnock1]

I would prefer not to have known of her demise as well. But it’s all over the news so it’s not possible. I’m just hoping more people hear about a tragic loss like this and decide to adopt a dog.
