Royal Treatment w/ Sheryl Dunleavy Dog Save The People

    • Pets & Animals

Sheryl Dunleavy is the Founder of The Ann Parke Collection, an antique business focused mainly on dogs. The lineage of the items, particularly some like Staffordshire ceramic dogs, dates back all the way to the mid-1800s and can be traced to Queen Victoria. Prior to her reign, dogs had just been looked at as working animals. But Victoria, whose main childhood companion was a King Charles Spaniel named Dash, modeled a kinder, loving acceptance of her dog to society. When she became Queen, Victoria showed the public how dogs could be part of your home, your family, and that they should be treated properly. The public perception changed, spurring a dramatic shift around the domestication and artistic documentation of dogs. Today, Sheryl tries to honor Victoria's legacy – and how special it is to capture dogs through art – in her own collection of antiques.For more information about the episode, guest, and featured social media or links: www.dogsavethepeople.com/episodes/sheryl-dunleavy - If you liked this episode, then please support our Independent podcast production, go to www.buymeacoffee.com/dogpeople to buy us a (virtual) coffee as a one-time donation or recurring monthly membership.
