Took this lovely poodle statue out of the box and cried, its the same height and looks like my Teddy that passed away 1 year ago on June 10th. I kept his collar  and put it on the statue. Its such a detailed statue realistic looking. My neighbour thought we had our dog stuffed,  I said gross and absolutely not. She liked it a lot.  I bring  the statue  in every night.  He is placed next to my chair outside every day where my Teddy used to nap. It will stay indoors all winter since I live in northern Canada.
