Collie dog $10. to $15. if its a large one !!  Havent looked at the Bestwick`s for sale !!  I would just watch a few on ebay and see what the ending price is !!  Things like this can do great one week and bomb out the next week !!  You can`t outguess the buying public !!

With only a Japan marking it might be very hard to identify the dog. I would not expect that one to have much value.
 
Here are the completed Ebay UK listings, this should give you a pretty good idea of what it would sell for, looks like a lot of bidding for some of these ending at around £20-30: http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_nkw=beswick+foal+dapple&_sacat=0&_odkw=beswick+foal&_ipg=50&_sadis=200&_adv=1%7C1&_sop=12&LH_SALE_CURRENCY=0&_osacat=0&_okw=%7C&_dmd=1&LH_Complete=1&_oexkw=%7C

If you look at this lot...on ebay..you,ll see lots of them...some that are similar to yours..others that are a different colour...but they all share the common denominator...they all have a number...The prices as you can see range from.$10..up to $30...therefore I am of the opinion that yours fall into this bracket...as the first one that was found by Tales...@£225...is totally different from yours...and i would n,t like you to get your hopes up...thinking..you,ve got a $350 Beswick...when its most likely..only a 10th of that...
as for the Japanese mutt...i,d say around $25...

What part of between $10 and $30 are you not grasping....think along these lines...but if it sells for more...then think yourself lucky...but if it sells for less or not at all....don,t blame me.... ;D...blame Tales ..for saying it was worth £225....

Considering what they have told you,, your $6. investment may make you between $50. and $60 !!  Could be a little more or less !!  Thats an excellent profit any way you look at it !!

A positive note: MSGhopper1924's collection of Beatrix Potter figurines were made by Beswick (no "t"), England, and many of those have appreciated quite well over the decades. If you love the horse, hang on to it!

I believe the others have given you LOTS of information and ebay listings to watch....and see how they sell in today's market.  You need to gauge what your selling price is by like foals...without numbers.  Take a week or so and observe...then list according to the average pricing.  Start for sale lower..if you list too high...they will stay away.

Hello,
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone home?.
.......again i will reiterate....what part of between $10 & $30 are you not comprehending...or perhaps i,m not explaining myself properly.....this little foal ornament....along with the Japanese made mutt,cost you $6..well,why don,t you stick the little foal on with a starting price of....say...$6....who,knows it might just take off...and if you,re very lucky and you,ve got 2 bidders...scrapping away with each other...you might get a good deal more than my estimated $30.....But!.....don,t hold your breath..... ;) ;).
