Tiny Confessions Dog Art | Product Review

Ever wonder what your dog is thinking?  Why is your cat looking at you that way?  Christopher Rozzi is providing some answers with his Tiny Confessions.

Tiny Confessions are handcrafted prints of original paintings of dogs, cats, and other creatures.  In addition to the very charming artwork, Rozzi provides a few secret thoughts and a few guilty admissions!  A wide selection is available at his Tiny Confessions shop on Etsy.

We think the confessions are pretty dog-gone cute!  The artwork is truly lovely.  The expressions on the dogs is what truly captured my attention.  Rozzie is a guy who pays attention to the details.   Some are hilarious, some are sweet, and all are simply "truth."

We were offered our choice of art print in exchange for our honest review and chose the Labrador Retriever at Tiny Confessions.  Available in tan, green, blue or pink, it includes the confession:  I have information pertaining to the whereabouts of your shoe.   Hmmm, Rudy must have been talking to Rozzi!

Our art print arrived very quickly, carefully packaged in a high quality plastic sleeve and non-bendable mailer.  It is an 8x10 inch print of an original painting with a white border.  

The image itself measures 7.75" x 9.75" and is printed on professional quality archival matte paper with archival pigment ink.  Plus, it includes the artist's original signature.  Retail price is $20 plus shipping.

Tiny Confessions also offers these art prints in a smaller size (5" x 7").  Either would make a barking good gift for any pet lover, especially for Valentine's Day!

We love our art print from Tiny Confessions and highly recommend them.

 Perhaps best of all, two lucky Talking Dogs readers will win their choice of Tiny Confessions art prints!  

All you have to do to enter is leave a comment below telling us which print you would choose.  Then be sure to take advantage of the Rafflecopter form for some extra entries!

Dog Art | Tucker is Watching for Us

If you're reading Talking Dogs blog, then you're a dog lover.  

So, you'll understand.

Our beloved black boy, Tucker, left us in October of last year.  

We still miss him and will forever.  Even though we had 14 years with him, no matter how long our furry family members are with us, it is never enough time.

We often talk about Tucker and how we like to think he's found another giant holly tree or two to shelter him.  And some wild strawberries to munch.   

So, imagine our feelings when we were shopping online and discovered an artist by the name of Todd Young.  

Todd is a self-taught artist.  You may have noticed one of his large forest paintings in the movie "I Hate Valentine's Day" starring Nia Vardalos and John Corbett.  You may have seen one of his paintings in the Grand Lobby of the Indiana State Museum.  Or you may have stumbled onto his Etsy shop or his ArtFire shop.

If not, you should.  Because Todd Young loves dogs and they show up everywhere in his work.


The Dog Daddy and I purchased one of his art prints as a Christmas gift to each other this year.  It's called:  The Clearing.

One glance below and you'll understand why.

Yes.  There's our beautiful black boy, Tucker.

Waiting and watching. 

Keeping an eye out.     For us.
