Elegant, Soulful, Hand-carved Dog textured clay and I have now foundPhotos don't quite do justice to this really wonderful carved dog, which, with these long, floppy ears I'd guess represents a hound of some sort, or perhaps a lab? and I have to think a much beloved one, as it has a very soulful face and presence!
