According to The Daily Camera online, based here in Colorado, 80% of pet parents now report buy holiday gifts for their dogs and/or cats.:
It’s that time of year when the furry, four-legged friends get extra treats and jingle bells on their collars, and dogs 
even get a pass if they lift their legs indoors (because, hey, somebody put a tree in the living room).
Eight in 10 pet owners say they give their pets holiday and birthday gifts, according to a survey from the American Animal Hospital Association. Another 21 percent sometimes dress their pets, according to the association.
Marc Bekoff, a research scholar at the Institute for Human-Animal Connection at the University of Denver, said pets love the extra attention around the holidays, as their guardians tend to spend more time around the home.
“They don’t know it’s the holiday season, but they know something special is going on,” Bekoff said. “It’s a great time for bonding with your family .. it’s acknowledging that these animals have emotions and feelings. You want to treat them well, and by treating them well, you feel good.”

Since our name is Pop Art Pet, obviously our specialty is custom portraits of your pet in that quintessential Pop Art, Warhol-esque style. In fact our classic four-panel design is by far the fan favorite. But did you know we also do beautiful work on our Traditional Style portraits?
Not only is this style of custom pet art beautiful, it’s a little more affordable than our Pop Art or Comic style pet portraits. Our Traditional Style art is also more forgiving when it comes to the quality of photo required. This is helpful when we are doing memorial portraits of beloved pets who have passed on and there aren’t many pictures for us to choose from, or when a client is purchasing one of our portraits as a gift and doesn’t want to spoil the surprise by requesting bigger better photos from the pet lover.
So even though our Pop Art pet portraits are cute and kitschy, consider instead a tasteful Traditional Style portrait for a timeless masterpiece of your pet! And remember, you can order right now and receive our extra services – laminate and gallery borders – for free! Visit our Specials Page for details and order today.
Read all about it.. If you order a custom pet portrait from Pop Art Pet now, in any style and any size, you can get our Extra Services at no EXTRA charge!
This means you’ll get FREE Gallery Borders and FREE Laminate (sorry, stretching services are not included in this offer)!
Unless you’ve already pondered ordering one of our unique pet portraits created from your pet’s photos, you probably don’t know what we’re talking about, so allow us to explain. As a client you have options when ordering your pet’s personal artwork.
Gallery Borders provide a colored border (adding inches to the total printed size of your portrait), so that when wrapped the edges of your portrait will have color rather than bare canvas.
Laminate is a liquid application process will increase the durability of the artwork and will make the colors of the print even more vibrant, which is why we highly recommend it!
This promo allows you to get a portrait with these additonal services which make your custom masterpiece even more dramatic, at no additional charge!

Did you know that the ASPCA, and other animal rescue and welfare groups nation wide are working independently to let the public know that October is Adopt-a-Shelter-Dog Month?
The struggling economy has meant more animals than ever are in need of homes. Shelters in the US are sadly overfilled with dogs, that have been found running loose, discovered abandonned in homes that have been forclosed on, or surrendered by their previous owners. So if your family has the time and resources to expand and include a new loyal, loving member, this month is the time to visit a shelter near you. The ASPCA can help you find one: http://www.aspca.org/adoption/shelters/
And with the vast amount of information about adoption and animal care on the internet, you will be able to make an informed decision about the right dog for you. For example, dogtime.com provides a questionnaire that will profile your personality and recommend the best breeds for your lifestyle. Click here to check it out and take the test!
Many shelters also now use similar methods to help you find a loveable Mutt with the winning combination of personality traits for your family! And during the month of October many animal rescue groups will also be running specials and discounts on adoption fees as incentive to find as many forever homes as possible for the millions of dogs in need.
Please help!
We’ve been impressed with our clients lately.. almost every custom pet portrait we’re working on currently is a Christmas gift! In the weeks of of late summer we usually start to get a some early birds, but this year everybody seems to be on the ball!
For those of you who are not so much.. keep in mind you’ve actually only got about 87 shopping days left (a lot less 
until Chanukah). Unfortunately you can’t exactly get custom art created from your photos at the last minute so really you should start planning now.
And if you order now you can take advantage of our Pre-Season, Pick Your Promo offer. You can either save 20% on a rolled portrait now OR you can purchase a stretched portrait now and get a voucher to save 20% on any order next month! But you have to order by the end of the month – that’s this Wednesday! So don’t delay!
Check out this urgent alert from the ASPCA about what you can do to help support a bill to allow tax deductions for pet care costs – up to $3500/year!:
Introduced by Rep. Thaddeus McCotter, H.R. 3501—known as the Humanity and Pets Partnered Through the Years (“HAPPY”) Act—is a federal bill that would reward responsible pet parents by allowing them to keep more money in their pockets come tax time.
We all want to give our animal companions the best care we possibly can, but it seems that pet care costs are always on the rise—and these days, it’s harder than ever to stretch the family budget. That’s why the ASPCA supports H.R. 3501, which would amend U.S. tax code to allow qualifying pet care expenses, including veterinary care, to be tax-deductible.
This means that when you prepare your income taxes, money you spent on pet care that year would count as non-taxable income—and you can deduct up to $3,500 per year!
Please help us support the HAPPY Act, H.R. 3501.

What an awesome idea! Finally the democratic process pays off for pet lovers!
