This dog is a typical example of Colima-styled
animal sculptures. His pose is not only lifelike,
but his attitude is friendly, even whimsical. It is
not unusual for the animal to have a spout
protruding somewhere on his body. In this case,
most dogs depicted lying on their sides usually
have an opening in the middle of their body. His
eyes are puffy slits and his mouth a thin line at
the bottom of his face. He is extremely beautiful
with simple sleek lines. He rests, waiting for the
one who owns him.
