Welcome Animal and Art Lovers!
UPDATE: THE PAWTRAIT AUCTION has ended. All our pawtraits by MHC Rescues now have owners. We raised $1,043 from this fundraiser. Thank you so much for your support. We'll be keeping an eye out for new talented 4-legged artists. Stay tuned for the next auction! Back by popular demand, PAWTRAITS by MHC Rescues is an online art auction. Some talented MHC rescue dogs wanted to help raise funds to support our rescue work. They are just so happy and grateful to have the chance to wait for their furr-ever homes safely. And so, they enlisted the help of our staff so they can put their paws, lickers and snouts to good use to create original artworks or “pawtraits” just for you! They really hope you like their special works of art! Please bid on something that catches your eye and give a pet and/or a pawtrait a home...THANK YOU! |
