owebeewan_1 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Hi there, I would love to have a fake life sized dog made, something like a stuffed toy but more realistic. Aside from taxidermy, does anyone have any ideas where I could get such a thing? Some people have mentioned asking visual artists, does anyone know one?

Hi there, I was planning on using it to teach kids about dog anatomy and health. Not all kids like real dogs so that makes it tough and toy ones just look a little too much like toys! As for breed, it doesnt really matter, one of the larger breeds or a cross, they are all good. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirty Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 They are very heavy too, probably not great for lugging around schools. There was a sheep at our local nursery which I am pretty sure was made by them, and it was from memory $3000!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
