The image area for these Goldens is 8"x10" and about 1/2" deep.

Pets always sell well. Anything for a sale! :)

Thanks James,

The wood is white pine (Pinus Strobus). Grows mainly in the NE US and SE Canada.

Joe,
Beautiful job of carving. I can't show this to Brooke 'cause she goes to tears due to having put our dog down this past summer. Those dogs look well fed.
