Turbo Guide
It's amazing the amount of preparations needed to leave on vacations.
My cousin is dog sitting Turbo and I've been writing
"The Complete Manual for Taking Care of Turbo" for the past two days! :)

What a sweet soul he is. Love the profile shot.

The moth is beautiful. At first I thought it was one of your paintings.

Bon voyage!

Wow! What a great illustration! I think you should write a children's story about a day in the life of Turbo. Could even be instructive. With your illustrations, who could resist! Hope your vacation is perfecto!

I envy your cousin. He's such a magnificent dog. Are you sure he wouldn't like an Aussie vacation instead! Enjoy your well earned break :)

Turbo has to be one of the luckiest critters ever if his mom is making such beautiful how-to guides for his caretakers! Lucky, beautiful puppy!

Haha - I´m always making looooong lists when I leave my Elsa to someone else. I´m almost embarrassed myself. :-)

Jajaja! Me encanta, dog sitting, no lo entendía al principio! Me recuerda a la primera vez que me fui de viaje y dejé a mi hijo mayor con mi madre! Dejé hojas y hojas de recomendaciones! Por cierto, soy la dog sitter de la perrita de mi hermano. Que disfrutes de tus vacaciones, seguro que Turbo se quedará en las mejores manos!

Seguro que tendrás unas vacaciones fantásticas y tu sobrina estará encantada con su "trabajo" (yo lo estaría!) Un abrazo

Oh, I am glad to see that other people write epic instructions for their pet sitters, too! I always feel slightly silly leaving a full how-to on handling my felines. And mine does not even look that pretty! Have a great vacation!

And Turbo is the most cuddlesome dog ever.

Good to see that Turbo can be a name as I recently heard a friend had used it to middle-name his child!

I love your pet dog's name: Turbo! You gave me such a nice idea, not that I am using Turbo. Everyone likes to be original:-)
