I love "Can We Go Out Now?" from Connie Haley but Zecca's "Sitting Pitty" has the most adorable face.  Like real dogs, all are wonderful but a special one is likely to catch your eye.

Dogs and Squirrels (Cindy Lynch and Cheryl Schaeffer)

This charming piece featuring Scotty dogs asking squirrels to come play is a Cindy Lynch design with stitch guide from Cheryl Schaeffer.
