According to our partner organizations in Central America,the dog was in a state of starvation when he was captured from thestreet for display. There is conflicting information, but we have heardthat the dog spent one day in the exhibit and later escaped the gallery.The Honduran ngo that we have been working with has confirmed that theBiennial organizers of the Honduran gallery have agreed to ban this"artist" from the gallery. The organizers have stated that they willalso include new competition rules that prohibit the

abuse of animals.We are keeping close watch on the case. If new information surfaces, wewill be updating our FAQ page athttp://www.hsus.org/contact_us/humane_society_international.html#Q_dog_artist.
