I thought this looked very familiar, but after searching and wracking my brain, I find that it’s not what I thought, in more ways than one.

It’s apparently a watercolor from Willoughby designs… no individual artist credited that I found.

And though I thought it was a dog driving a racecar… It’s a bunny!

It still looks like a dog to me… But it comes in a set of four animals, and this one is the dog:

Wow, the file type is weird and even though I renamed it, it won’t show up. Working on it!

Thanks.

I was getting there but my tablet is being weird.

That’s the dog.

You’re welcome.
If you’d succeeded you could have just deleted your (and thus my) comment; I don’t mind.

They’d have a hard time convincing me that’s the giraffe. 😁

As long as they don’t tell me that’s the turtle, that’s the giraffe.

A     LINK     to an article that’s about as factual as we’re going to get about the Burns twins (Lisa and Louise) now.

I’m certain that there is a bit of “Mel Blanc” in there as well… “Jack Davis” too…

I dunno…. I don’t see much Jack Davis, or hear any voices.

But I might see a little influence of Jack Daniels.

HAHA!
Mel, in the sense of Wile E. Coyote, visualized…
Jack, oh, yeah, always good for hearing “those” voices…

I’m guessing some kind of buzzard.

I doubt that because there wouldn’t be feathers on the head because they would get infested with bacteria and other unhealthy critters from sticking heir heads in the body of the carcasses. Eagles and hawks may scavenge, but tend to keep to small animals or bits they can carry away.

Apparently buzzards and some vultures do have feathered heads, though.

However this guy’s beak seems too short for a buzzard and way too short for a vulture.

I’m no ornithologist, though.

It’s a bateleur eagle.
Primary range South to mid-Africa.
Bateleur derives from French and translates to ‘tumbler’; it rocks from side to side while flying. It both hunts its own prey and scavenges the prey of others.

Bonnie Raitt may be more believable as an Angel, but this song was written and first recorded by John Prine.

I believe they performed it together once.

Listening to it just reminds me of how much we lost when he passed.

Not to mention more believable as a (future) old woman.

That’s not either of my dogs. If it’s remotely edible QTπ is going for it.
It doesn’t even need to be edible for Buddy to eat it.

A taste is not something Cleo is willing to work at acquiring.

There are too many tastes she already possesses, and desires to have accommodated, for her to bother acquiring a taste for something she never asked for and doesn’t instantly like.

She respectfully … okay, disrespectfully… suggests that since you bought these biscuits, it’s only fair that you aquire a taste for them, and eat them yourself…

Or ….. she’s pretty sure you know what you can do with them!
