Dog Weathervane,
Rottweiler, Detail
|
|
In the copper
Rottweiler weathervane
show here, we have gold leafed the dog’s lighter markings and teeth. As the
copper patinas to a deep chocolate brown color, the distinction in the markings
will become more pronounced and attractive. We use brown glass eyes with black
pupils to give the dog a more lifelike appearance. Because we make each
weathervane to order, we can make the dog either a male or female.
Please click
on the thumbnails of the dog’s head to get a feel for the quality of detail in
each weathervane. As an option, we can even personalize the weathervane to match
your dog’s markings! For more information on creating a portrait weathervane of
your dog, please give us a call.
All our
dog weathervanes can be made with an optional collar. We can actually
inscribe your dog's name on the collar in either 1/4" or 1/8" tall stamped
letters (cost is $1 per letter) or we can add a tag in the shape of a dog bone,
a heart or a circle. Using a combination of these options, we can incorporate up
to three dog's names on your weather vane! What we do is put one dog's name on
one side of the collar, another dog's name on the opposite side of the collar
and a third name on the dog tag. The collar and/or tag can be optionally gold
leafed as well. (See below for details on gold leafing.)
The
Rottweiler
breed is an ancient one, and its history stretches back to the Roman Empire. In
those times, the legions traveled with their meat on the hoof and required the
assistance of working dogs to herd the cattle. One route the army traveled was
through Württemberg and on to the small market town of Rottweil. The principal
ancestor of the first
Rottweilers during this time was supposed to be the Roman war
dog, local sheepdogs the army met on its travels, and dogs with molosser
appearance coming from England and The Netherland.
