Sapphire ..... I thought you were one of the nice ones.
Thought I had pretty good taste too but maybe nobody recognizes it. ;)

Curious as to what it is made of ?.  kinda looks wood or chalkware, but can't really tell.  Would look good next to my growing chalkware.  Got that gothic gargoyle looking going on too.

Looks to me like lines left from a serrated edge, similar to a steak knife.....almost unfinished?

Too early in the morning and no caffeine yet......on the back between, 5 and 6 o'clock, right above that 'whitish' patch....
am I seeing letters/numbers??  :-\

It doesn't look to me to have the nose of a dog.

Setting here looking at the picture.It resembles the Montauk Monster which had a beak more so then a nose. Cryptozoology is not a hobby of mine. the paranormal is. hunting those ''Thing's '' that go Bump in the night ;D ;D ;D

Hmmm... I beg to differ. Look at the "Roman nose" profile the camel has, the upper lip and the presence of a chin. But if not a dog or a camel then what 'th heck is it? Perhaps a highly aggressive sheep?!!
