Old Puppy Doorstop with Pink Bow and Wounded Ear alligator and our author really lovedI was sort of thinking this of this pup as a complement to the rebus plates I just listed; with its perfect pink bow, it looks decidedly French to me! At some point along the way it lost a chunk of one ear, which I rather think just makes it look extra alert and ready to (be thrown in a handbag and) go! 8 1 8" t x 4 5 8" w x 5 1 2" d. Nice aging to the great paint job. The doorstop piece wiggles a tiny bit but is still well attached.
