Default whittle dog

Here's a new project I've been making, carved in some old pine I had.
this is the first of eight I've been asked to carve, wasn't planning on selling them but they ended up selling pretty good. I put shoe polish on him and then a coat of poly.
Hope you like looking at him.
P.S. If anyone's interseted in buying any PM me.

Alex

Pretty nifty. I like your knife too. I think if you cut the head off, you'd have a bear heading in the other direction.
