my first ascii art needs help...

my first ascii art needs help...

Please find below my first attempt at ascii art.  (It is my dog - a 
Portuguese Water Dog.)  I created it by fiddling with a different dog I 
found.

I have put it in my signature, but people are telling me it comes out 
distorted.

I think it may be due to the font they use for their mail readers - 
what do you think, and is there any way around that?

Thanks for your suggestions.
