Nothing wrong with sentimental art when it truly represents life. This painting really captures a pining dog, and speaks volumes about the relationship he enjoyed with his master.

Oh gosh, this made my eyes well up with tears – such devotion. Mind you, if the dog had broken its leg, the shepherd would have probably shot it!
