🐶 Ettore — By Giulio Masieri in Pordenone, Italy 🇮🇹

A golden dog stretches along a wall on Via Generale Antonio Cantore in Torre, chin on the pavement, and the man beside it only reaches its ear. Masieri lists the work as Ettore on his site Gli animali giganti; passers-by quickly renamed it “E’(t)Tore”.

💡 Dog Fact: It was the first mural in the neighborhood’s AnimaLeVie series, inaugurated on July 18, 2020. Masieri told Il Friuli he picked a dog so the design would speak to everyone.

🐕 Great Dane Meets Puppy — By A-Fresco in Montpellier, France 🇫🇷

A Great Dane bends down to inspect a puppy that barely reaches its knee. Both dogs are painted, and so are the window, the shutters and the shadows, all part of A-Fresco’s trompe-l’oeil wall Juliette et les Esprits at 33 rue Balard, facing Parc Clémenceau.

💡 Park Fact: A-Fresco points out that the mural faces the park’s dog area, so the painted dogs have a real audience.

🐕 Jimmy the Kelpie — By SMUG in Nullawil, Australia 🇦🇺

A farmer keeps one hand on Jimmy, a local working kelpie, across the curved silos at 26 Calder Highway in Nullawil. SMUG started painting on July 5, 2019, and finished 14 days later. Jimmy still looks like he’s on duty.
