Gift to the dog walkers

[dervishcarving]

So the children who use the community area close to my house got the Gruffalo so i figured the dog walkers should get something too. Chainsaw-carved in oak and then sanded smooth. Finished with decking oil (with wax).

I wanted to try to bring some 'movement' to the piece so i have used some steel bars to support the front of the dog, allowing his front-legs to be 'free'. Where he is placed the grass is allowed to grow nice and long so eventually it will look like he is leaping up to look over the long grass. Oh... its the brown (oak colored) dog, not the daft black one. That's my dog Albus (latin joke).

Nice one deverishcarving

You’ve definitely captured a moment of action in your carving.

I think it’s guaranteed to intrigue the attention of passers-by & a few of our four legged friends also
