The item bears the usual minor knocks and scuffs overall consistent with age and use. It carries a light green /grey verdigris patination overall with patches of darker grey through weathering. 

The casting is in original condition but there are casting inconsistencies in places where there is a lack of definition in the detail.

One of the dog's ears appears to have been broken away and restored back into position at some point. This is not recent work, is well executed and is nicely 'weathered in'.

The item rocks slightly on its base.

The above points aside, the object remains in entirely presentable and usable shape.
