Your dog looks like he was fun to work on and that's the most important part of carving ... FUN. Thanks for sharing your work with us.

Agree the doggie does look like you had fun carving. Also if I didn't get a chance to welcome you I'll do it now. WELCOME!

Those are neat pieces. I'm partial to the shelf elf as I always wanted to try one. Y've been carving around the same length of time as myself. When do we start calling ourselves "newbies". I personally think you've reached a higher level. Maybe we can call ourselves "rookies" or "level two carvers" eh. There has been threads on this topic so I better let well enough alone.

Nice pooch! I'm partial to Mike Shipley's characters. I finished the same dog back last fall. It was a lot of fun. I've got two of his other Ozark characters all cut out, just haven't found the time to work on them. I'm not familiar with the Shelf Elf. I'll have to check it out the next time that I visit Nawger Knob!

Keep up the great work!
