Its an iron dog that looks hand made. I found it metal detecting a 100 year old house today and i have never seen anything like it. Anyone got any info about it? i didn't see any makers marks or anything to I.D. it so i have no clue.




I thank God for each day!

Probably a doorstop. Second thought, it looks a bit small inthe 2nd pic, maybe just some blacksmith art?

It fits in the palm of my hand, I think it was hand made and was simply a little kids toy. I found it under an old tree in the front yard where I would expect kids from "those" days to play.

Very cool treasure!

I can see how metal detecting could get addicting.

If it's solid I'd say a doorstop...I've seen them at antique places, Terriers and Boston Terriers, some bulldogs.

Cool find! thumb

Looks like what they used to put on the gates of chainlink fences.
