Introducing Gorky!

We had planned to have a little break between foster dogs but in rescue plans tend to change frequently and last minute we learned that our new foster boy, Gorky, will be arriving late tonight instead of next week.

Gorky is a big, short tank of a boy who has a handsome blue tuxedo tricolor coat and is always ready for adventure. He's about a year old and weighs around 20 pounds and has ears that just might be longer than his legs!  We can't wait to meet this silly guy.

Gorky is named for the Armenian-American Abstract Expressionist painter, Arshile Gorky. Gorky fled the Armenian genocide and immigrated to Russia first, then America where he enrolled in art school. His paintings and drawings hang in every major art museum in the United States including the National Gallery of Art, The Museum of Modern Art, Art Institute of Chicago, and the Whitney Museum of American Art.
