Mischa and Honey Skinny Dog are little Miss Popular. Who knew? The WordPress helper-monkeys that’s who. According to their annual number crunching stats report my post The Skinny Dogs Sketched and Tattooed received the most views of the year. I haven’t told them, it would just go to their heads. But it just goes to show, dogs trump elves in the blog world.
The top search term to find me was skinny dog, Nick Sharratt, Nick Sharratt drawings, illustrations for Jaqueline Wilson (they are by Nick Sharratt) and My Sister Jodie (illustrated by Nick Sharratt). Probably because I wrote this piece about my admiration for….Nick Sharratt. So if I draw the skinny dogs Nick Sharratt style I wonder what will happen. Hmmmmm…..I feel a blog post coming on.
All the best to everyone in 2013 and especially all those who have taken the time to view, like, or pass comment on the quite frankly ridiculous blog posts here at Ziggy Shortcrust. I leave you with the very popular Skinny Dogs.
Hey Honey, prick up your ears. We were the most popular thing on Ziggy’s blog.
Whoop! I could just jump for joy.
Stop jumping and head for the sofa to pose.
Ok, just as soon as I’ve unstuck my tongue from my nose.
Hello! Anybody out there admiring me?
I laugh in the face of elves. Hahahaha!
Campervan Skinny Dogs
Are Skinny Dogs more popular than elves? You decide.
Ziggy Shortcrust 
Who says your posts are ridiculous !! they most definitely are NOT!.. well maybe just a little 🙂 your skinny dogs are handsome indeedy and just look at the inside of that camper van… heaven!
Yep, they’re ridiculous. And probably, so are the skinny dogs.
Darlings, darlings, darlings!! They do trump, everywhere, don’t doggies. I’d be a mental case without my best friend Snowy Moriarty Dawg.
My most popular search terms were “lara pulver nude”, “lara pulver”, “lara pulver naked”, “jasmine breinburg”, and “lara pulver nackt”. I think I had a lot of disappointed readers.
Ha! Brilliant 🙂
Beautiful dogs. Best wishes for the new year!
They try very hard. Happy New Year!
As popular as them dogs are, I still like your artwork a whole lot better.
Have a Happy New Year
Aw thank you Hansi. This will never be a dog blog. And a Happy New Year to you too.
Skinny dogs rule! Happy New Year to you and the SD’s 🙂
Happy New Year!
They’re gorgeous dogs, and they pose so stylishly, but I like your elves better too 😉 Do elves have pet dogs, I wonder?
Now there’s an idea!
Ziggy, the secret is all in the last picture. I should have realised… Is that Honey with the elfin ears? I’m not even really a dog person, but I’m more a dog snorter
Please erase that last message – my stupid phone morphed my word. Try as I might in another life, I doubt that I could ever be a dog snorter. Now that would be outrageous and not at all ridiculous.
I laughed ’til I nearly fell over. I love it when spell checker goes bad and produces ridiculous sentences. It’s probably elves at work. What the heck could a dog snorter be?
I’m glad you only *nearly* fell over… wouldn’t want to have caused an injury so early into 2013! 😛
Ziggy! But the answer is in that last photo! Is that Honey with the elfin ears?
I’m not a dog person, more like a dog admiring person (and definitely a slightly-suspicious-of-all-cats person). Perhaps that’s why I could tell straight away. Your skinny dogs are no ordinary dogs for sure. And they are most certainly the most beautifully handsomely gorgeous canines on the Internet.
Happy New Year dear Ziggy. Let’s raise a good cuppa to a ridiculous 2013, for all things worthwhile and happy-making are somewhat ridiculous. We have to constantly kick and pinch ourselves for fear that they are not real 😉
Hmmmm elfin dogs? I fear Honey is a dog of very little brain and long words bother her…..like dog-snorter! On the other hand Elves are very intelligent.
But I’m raising a cuppa to 2013 right now.
I love the pics of the Skinny Dogs, and your sketches as well! (I have 3 dogs and a cat sitting here in my office while I’m working on illustrations — they are all trying to art direct…)
Ah yes, I know how that goes. Honey is trying to get on my lap while I draw right now. Actually, I think she’s telling me it’s breakfst time.
Lovely dogs – especially like the last pic !
[My dream when I win the lottery is to buy a vw campervan and take off with my 3 jack-russels] 😆
I sincerely hope your dream comes true. I can think of nothing better.
