Default Golden Doodle

We were visiting friends a few months back and I started carving this while I was there. Their dog is a Golden Doodle (Poodle & Golden Retriever cross) and I took a couple of photos with my phone and went to work. When we left to go back home, I had it complete except for the eyes, mouth, and paint. Finally got it done. Basswood and 3 inches tall.

Claude, he's a real cutie! Are you keeping him, or giving him to your friends? Either way, wish he was mine! Bonnie

Claude,

Like the way he turned out. Did you just start carving him out of a block.

Safe Carving and God Bless,

Mark

Hi Claude,
Very cute dog! I like his facial features too, the tongue sticking out a little makes him even cuter, like him a lot.

Thanks, all, for the nice comments!

No worms - this is her normal position for sitting, especially when she thinks you might have a goodie or two to give her. The carving is for my friends - just need to get it to them now.
