                                                        Click for You Tube Video    
Congratulations and a tip of the hat to Amanda Millar Love for the winning bid!

As a late-comer to this public art project,  I want to thank you all for the opportunity to lend support.   This a cause near and dear to my heart too.  Special thanks go to Mark Yasenchack for creating the original sculpture and for personally going out of his way to make the hand off just a few days ago, and to Sandy Smith for starting the ball rolling.

 "Gourmutt" the Baker is complete and ready to raise dough for Friends of Cleveland Kennel.
