Perfect!! We put it outside in the summer, inside for winter. That way it will always look the way it should. The realism of this Boston Terrier is so perfect we are constantly talking to it or calling it by name until we realize this one is the fake one. That’s how perfect the workmanship is! In fact, it is almost the same size and color as our real dog. I think she gets a little confused at times as to who’s who!!!
