This is a dog figurine...Greyhound/Whippet not really sure. The maker is Hutschenreuther Kunstabteilung..there is a number on the tag, but that may be the price in marks. The dog appears frightened or apprehensive. The tip of his tail is broken off. It is between his legs..see pic, you can't really tell unless you turn him over. He stands 8" tall and is 7" long at the base. If you have any questions, please ask. Thanks
