Rupert Fawcett has always had a deep love for art—it was the one subject he truly excelled in during his school years, as academics never came naturally to him. He would spend hours absorbed in drawing. Equally important to him was humor; from a young age, comedy played a central role in his life. He looked up to comedians and funny individuals with the same admiration others reserved for pop stars.

    "I only draw comics if they are relatable; otherwise, people would not enjoy them. It’s the identification that people enjoy and often say, ‘Have you got cameras in my house?’" the artist said, explaining how people connect with the everyday situations in his work.

    Although his cartoons often showcase the funny, endearing side of dogs, we wanted to know what he thinks makes the relationship between dogs and their owners so special. The artist explained that dogs offer unwavering love and loyalty:  "Dogs give their owners unconditional love and devotion and communicate with their eyes and body language, which connects with people at a deep level."

    Our dog is a livestock guardian breed. He does tend to plant himself where he interferes with all traffic - from the *human* point of view. I strongly suspect that it's an ingrained behavior for him to 'occupy a defensive position' where he's able to intercept as many incoming threats as possible. Ren is a good boy, and takes his duty *very* seriously. (If he thinks he's 'on the job', he will not even accept treats. He waits until he's 'off the clock', and then treats are definitely fair game.) Ren-Belly-...ee3efc.jpg Ren-Belly-Rub-1-68673ccee3efc.jpg

    Many of Rupert’s comics reveal that what you thought was your dog’s unique quirk might actually be something lots of dogs do. With that in mind, we asked if he ever thinks twice about whether certain behaviors are too specific to be widely understood. He explained, "Some dogs have individual behaviors, but I don’t depict them as most people wouldn’t connect. I like to draw behaviors that are universally recognized."

    We have to spell certain favorite words in order for our girls not to figure out what my family and I are saying sometimes! Anytime we have accidentally said the favorite words without meaning to do so, they are demanding that they receive their preferred items or engage in their preferred activities immediately, even if they know “”it’s not time yet.“
