Cute theme, black and white! The Irish one reminds of the time I saw Border collies working sheep off the road in Ireland. Mine are black and white too, in a different way!

Fino is definitely the 'star of the show' on the painting, so white and fluffy.

I'm sorry for Fino and Tiny, but I prefer the farm animals :)
And I found some! See here.

I like these! Very creative idea. Wonder if the first photo is relatives? (My last name is Holstein).

I’ve never seen a spitz with that coloring! Lovely! I particularly like the black and white cows in Holland that look like they’re wearing a big belt. So cool.
