The Rule Is Posted. The Dogs Are Monitoring the Door. The Guests Have Been Informed. Compliance Is Expected. The Dogs Will Not Be Rushed.

On a ground of deep warm brown — the brown of a very serious household policy and also of the two dachshunds enforcing it — the rule is stated in large cream groovy letters that leave no room for misunderstanding: ALL GUESTS MUST BE APPROVED BY THE DOGS. To the right, a door. In the door, a gap. From the gap, two dachshunds. One above, one below, both black and tan and absolutely focused on their responsibilities. The upper dachshund has placed a paw on the door frame. This is a professional gesture. It means he is working. The lower dachshund is looking directly at you with the wide-eyed intensity of someone who has reviewed your file and has questions. Their expressions are not unfriendly. They are evaluating. The process takes as long as it takes. The sign is not decorative. The sign is policy. The dachshunds are not pets. They are staff. The painting is executed in the clean, confident graphic style of the best contemporary retro illustration — warm brown ground, cream groovy typography, flat graphic dachshund portraits with the specific charm of illustration that knows exactly what it is doing and is very good at it.

"The policy had been in effect since the dogs arrived. It had not always been posted. It had not needed to be posted. It had always been understood. The posting was for the guests. The dogs had always known. The dogs have always known everything that happens at this door. That is the point of the dogs."
