Two Small Dogs, a painting by David Klöcker Ehrenstrahl. The artwork depicts two small dogs, possibly Papillons, interacting with each other. One dog is standing on its hind legs, appearing to playfully engage with the other dog, which is seated. The dogs are rendered with detail, showing their fur texture and markings. The background is dark, with a deep blue fabric draped behind the dogs, providing a contrast to their lighter coloring.

The painting's dimensions are 0.52 meters wide and 0.58 meters high. It is housed in the Nationalmuseum. The date of the artwork is not specified.
