00:00:01.500 --> 00:00:06.470
Well done. Good job, buddy. All right, so this is what Van Gogh had

00:00:06.470 --> 00:00:10.730
created. Came out beautiful. This one eared rescue dog named Van Gogh

00:00:10.730 --> 00:00:15.700
is a painter, just like the artist he's named after. So I had seen

00:00:15.700 --> 00:00:20.670
Van Gogh's picture and it was an instant love at first sight. He was

00:00:20.670 --> 00:00:25.285
just absolutely adorable. I fell in love with his big smile and his

00:00:25.285 --> 00:00:29.545
name and his story. He was actually a friendly neighborhood stray and

00:00:29.545 --> 00:00:35.180
some dog. Letters had picked him up and used him as a bait dog, so he

00:00:35.180 --> 00:00:39.665
was actually found hiding in a drain pipe covered in scrapes and his

00:00:39.665 --> 00:00:43.805
ear unfortunately was hanging off. So he was brought in by animal

00:00:43.805 --> 00:00:47.600
control to the shelter and unfortunately with the injuries he did

00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:49.670
have to have his ear amputated.

00:00:50.300 --> 00:00:54.187
No one seemed to want to adopt the seven-year old boxer Pitbull, so

00:00:54.187 --> 00:00:58.074
Jacqueline Gardner got an idea letting him paint. I thought it'd be a

00:00:58.074 --> 00:01:01.662
cute little gift to give to the potential adopter and he, we've

00:01:01.662 --> 00:01:05.549
learned, loved peanut butter. We did an art gallery event and he had

00:01:05.549 --> 00:01:09.436
made canvases and we had auctioned them off to do a fundraiser as

00:01:09.436 --> 00:01:13.622
well as try to help him find a home. And I ended up getting

00:01:13.622 --> 00:01:17.210
Commission offers from people that wanted to buy his art. So the

00:01:17.210 --> 00:01:18.705
whole idea completely took off.

00:01:21.270 --> 00:01:24.954
So how exactly are his creations made? We essentially are putting a

00:01:24.954 --> 00:01:28.945
thin layer of peanut butter on top, and he just licks the peanut

00:01:28.945 --> 00:01:32.629
butter. While he's licking the peanut butter. All the paint is moving

00:01:32.629 --> 00:01:36.927
around within the bag, so that's kind of how it works right there. Go

00:01:36.927 --> 00:01:40.304
money raised for Van Gogh painting goes back to Jacqueline's Animal

00:01:40.304 --> 00:01:43.988
Rescue, and it helps other dogs find homes. To date, we've raised

00:01:43.988 --> 00:01:47.672
$3500 for happily forever after rescue. The skills have made Van Gogh

00:01:47.672 --> 00:01:50.435
a big deal. His most requested piece has definitely.

00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:54.648
The starry night, and I think just because of Van Gogh, that is his

00:01:54.648 --> 00:01:58.152
most famous painting. And play with me, you'll play. It also finally

00:01:58.152 --> 00:02:02.824
got him adopted. And as soon as I walked in the door, I fell in love

00:02:02.824 --> 00:02:07.496
with that face. He barked at me a little bit and then I just sat on

00:02:07.496 --> 00:02:11.876
the floor and he kept coming up to me and just just had a connection

00:02:11.876 --> 00:02:15.672
with him. Jessica says Van Gogh will continue to paint, but only for

00:02:15.672 --> 00:02:19.760
a good cause. Yes, but it only be for Jacqueline and for her rescue.

00:02:19.760 --> 00:02:24.160
So any profits? That would go would be directly to her having such

00:02:24.160 --> 00:02:27.856
support from all over the world, working with Jacqueline and the

00:02:27.856 --> 00:02:31.888
Fosters and the team and it's amazing this is Inside Edition digital.
