    Whippet or Italian Greyhound. i love these high strung, excitable dogs! Years ago, i was on my way to an important interview and i had on my favorite vintage suit and tie. i stopped by Dolores Park to walk my dog first and it had been raining. This whippet came running up to me and as i bent over, it shook it's little pay a million miles per second, covering me from head to toe w/ a very fine spray of mud. This piece is 21 inches high. Italian, maybe?

      That dog really had to sit still for a long time when they made the mold for this sculpture. ;-) I suspect they used a mounted example for this.
      Such a true-to-life sculpture.

      i agree mp.kunst. i'll have to take another photo of it in the afternoon light. it looks amazing in the late afternoon at my nursery.
