It is not known by some that portraits of favored pet dogs are honored in English drawing rooms, immortalized on these very walls. Now, however, we witness real dogs strolling through Central park while its counterpart in a painting are hung frequently on the walls of many New York living rooms.

Englishmen regard their dogs highly, giving them places in their family as these are close to their hearts. Those whom he chose to describe as paintings of hunting, shooting racing, and doggy pictures have sold increasingly well ever since the year 1961, when the auction house first started to sell sporting paintings. A portrait showcasing a Newfoundland which was a white and black dog was sold by the prolific painter for a record breaking price to a man who was so much into art pieces with sporting orientations.
Witnessing paintings from the 18th and mostly 19th century can make you feel as if you are in another era. These pieces are sought after by those who want to enter into things beyond their social range, activities like shooting with jackets and hounds and horses or even hunting. A little shop was opened in Manhattan by a certain interior designer and antiques dealer who believes that there are so many lovers of dog paintings out there. And on this shop's nicely painted blue and white walls is a wide array of cow and horse pictures along with many dog portraits.
When it comes to art collectors, expect two kinds. One are individuals that have the same dog so they'd like to get a certain breed depicted in the painting. Second would be the type of people who have a firm grasp on the kind of breed and is entitled to become extremely picky about the painting, wanting to see if it is correct anatomically. There are some who go for paintings as substitutes for the real living ones. You don't have to feed or walk them.

This decorator now has a proud array of these canine dog paintings, where some are hanging in taffeta bows at his Manhattan apartment, all 75 of them. Dealers and art specialists emphasize that the painting's quality along with the name of the artist set the price, but then many would still aver that some kinds of dogs are simply more in demand than some other types as in the changes of fashions in real dogs. Everyone seems to want the Cavalier King Charles spaniels but today, the West Highland Terriers, Cairns and Scotties are becoming increasingly in demand too. And you could sit forever with a painting of a German shepherd.
A dealer of dog paintings states that the years between 1850 and 1920 saw the heyday of dog paintings and he did so as he stayed in his small one bedroom space in Manhattan which also serves as his office. Tons of inquiries for king charles spaniels, Chinese shar peis and terriers flooded him, he recounts. During the previous year, he had gotten around 10 requests for doberman pinscher paintings. He shares that he has never held a great painting of a Doberman as this breed got developed only in the late 1880s, and being a recent breed, it was understandable why he can't find any good old portraits of them.
There are special auction events for sporting portraits held by this artist. Some of the people that participate in such auctions are those who reside in country homes, into hunting and racing and then there are the ones that pull of a look inspired by a famous designer of fashion labels and materials. A woman who gazed through a black and white dog photo decided to buy a Spaniel painting and she works as an advertising executive for a huge TV firm. To match the painting, she spent her waiting time by buying an actual spaniel, with a ruby red coat. Three months after, the portrait arrived at her doorstep, and it was of a black and tan King Charles but nevertheless she kept it even if it did not match her real pet.
