Often, artist dogs, such as the German Shepherd Kaiserin, which started a charity project involving four-legged painters, are themselves disabled, but this does not stop them from painting at all.

“We started selling Kaiserin’s work to raise money for the Tripawds Foundation at the end of 2019, and it’s been a huge success. After Kaiserin passed away in 2020, I decided to continue working on the project to honor her memory.” Natasha Baguley, the owner of a talented shepherd dog, said.
