Here’s Remi and Ruger’s finished portrait. Remi (left) is the Red Merle Australian Shepherd. She is six years old, and is the “mama” of the crew – she is always watching and making sure everyone stays in line and follows the rules. Ruger (right) is a Black Tri Australian Shepherd. He is five years old and is the “protector” of the crew. He is laid back and cuddly until he feels he needs to protect his family.
