Meet Dagger II! This awesome Labrador dog paints like a pro!
The Labrador–Golden Retriever mix from Long Island, New York has an incredible artistic side. Using a brush, an easel and acrylic paint, this dog makes terrific masterpieces.
Before his painting talent was discovered, Dagger was trained to work as a service dog for people with disabilities. He was unfortunately disqualified because he’s scared of using the stairs.
One day his owner, Yvonne Dagger, discovered his fascination for art.
”He always lays down next to me,” she said. “But one day he was nudging me and I asked if he wanted to paint and his tail started wagging!”
Since then, Dagger II has been nicknamed Dog Vinci. He also sports a cool red beret like a real artist!

The Labrador mix dog sure is putting his talents to good use. The talented 3-year-old accepts commissions and his works fetch up to $100 a piece. All the money he earns from selling his artworks goes to a dog charity.
What an awesome dog!
Practice makes perfect!!!!
