An artist on Long Island is raising money for animals in need, but it's not who or even what you might expect. Meet Dagger is the dog who is creating works of art, and his pieces are sold all over the world. Art can come in many forms, and so can artists. Dagger is a 3-year-old black dog with quite an eye. His owner Yvonne Dagger says she's just the director. "Every stroke, you see on the canvas is Dagger's mark," she said.

Yvonne took in Dagger as a training dog for Canine Companions for Independence, but there was a different plan for him. One day, Yvonne, an artist, was working in her Massapequa studio when something unexpected happened. "He just started pushing me, and I said, 'Dagger do you want to paint?'" she said. "So his tail started to wag. I said OK."

But like any beginning artist, Dagger's works aren't free. A 12x12 painting will cost you a $50 donation to Canine Companions. "We've taken in so many orders for paintings," Yvonne said. "He was painting yesterday. He will be painting again today." Dagger's works are getting to be quite famous. He's been commissioned by people all over the world to do works of art for them, raising more than a $1,000 for Canine Companions for Independence.

"That's really a great thing for Dagger to be able to do," Yvonne said. "In his way, he's able to give back to the people who were so kind to him." He is an artist and just a plain old good dog. It doesn't get much sweeter than that for the dog called Dog-Vinci.
