To think, Sir had not only taken him to the Dog Show as he had pleaded, but ENTERED HIM. Excited? Yes. That was definitely the word for it. Asher hopped and yipped with palpable excitement.
His heart thundered in his chest as they passed through the curtains of the prep area and into the enormous Showroom. Ashers tongue lolled from side to side in time to the stiffened arousal between his legs, beaming brightly. He gazed adoringly up at the man holding his leash and followed him past the stands of onlookers.
All hed wanted was to be a pup: to be able to bark and trot and chase balls on all fours. An accident confined him to a wheelchair and relegated those dreams to just that - dreams.
As the competitors lined up along the floor for judging, he fought to keep from wagging his tail from side to side inside his frame and remember his training. Sir had created something magical, just for him; like a fairy godmother in some twist on the Cinderella story. Asher had gone to the ball!

Jeezy petes. Awesome pup pic, ruined by the addition of the owner. Rrrrrg. I apologize for that. The pup solo is pretty amazing. Im really proud of the linework and color. Im thinking seriously about erasing the second character and leaving just the pup.
The pic is dedicated to a certain pup I know who is surviving a really trying time and has a heart 20 sizes too big. When he told me about his legs and his desire for puppy play, this setup instantly came to mind.
