Having arrived back in Vitoria da Conquista in Bahia, Brazil again, it´s lovely to see the dogs at the Associacao Amiga dos Animais looking so much better! Malu and Belinha who I painted the last time I was here had put on weight and looked glossy and healthy and energetic even with their little wheelchairs.  Nice, the lady who runs the AMA shelter, works miracles with almost no funding and no resources to give so many hundreds of dogs like them a new lease of life.
