3 dog figurines. Any help greatly apreciated!
« on: August 28, 2012, 03:20:08 pm »
Hi everyone,

I have a three dogs that I really know nothing about. Two of them are metal, one is porcelain. All I know is that they were my great grandmothers. There are no makers marks. I have no clue about age. I posted pictures, any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Your metal German Shepard dogs appear to be Made by Jennings Bros. like this one but with no bases. http://www.rubylane.com/item/329918-1115/Bronze-Finish-Spelter-German-Shepherd

If you scroll down I believe this is your  porcelain Scottie

I sometimes think bout everyone produced a Scotty dog in some form or another and thus it is not easy to determine the makers of one.  

I have a lamp with a black Scottie perched (same pose as yours) on the black glass base of it and have yet to find out who made it.
