Our original Running Golden Retriever Weathervane was inspired by Loveit, the spectacular 1992 American Champion. We were delighted to meet this beautiful dog and his owner, who worked closely with us to capture the elegance of this canine champion’s movement and to refine our design to perfectly represent his conformation.
Golden Retriever Running Mouth Closed
Since then, we have done many variations on this original. We have crafted Goldens with their mouths open, or mouths closed; running or standing in the classic conformation pose. We have crafted dogs with short field coats and others with long silky show coats. We even captured a distinctive quirk in one dog’s tail!
We have also personalized with the addition of collars with dog’s names on them and with sticks or balls in their mouths. On the two dog collars you see above, one side of the collar has the name Luna and the other side of the dog collar has the name Teddy. This way two beloved dogs were commemorated. For Luna and Teddy we also attached a ‘Lucky Penny’ from the year of birth on each side of the dog collar, instead of in the weather vane itself.
Even your dog’s gender can be included in the modifications we can make to capture your dog. Some customers have also added copper fletchings with kennel or dog’s names written in optional gold leaf.
Another example of how you can personalize one of our designs is our Golden Retriever Running with Duck Weathervane. We created this adaptation for one our customers with a cherished hunting dog.
Several of our customers have put their Golden Retriever Weather Vanes in garden settings to commemorate the passing of a beloved Golden Retriever. Putting the weathervanes near ground level has the distinct advantage being visible from inside the house. While weathervanes are quite beautiful on top of the house, we advise our customers to put the weathervane where they can see and enjoy it. A number of breeders have displayed their weathervanes on top of their kennels and have written them off as an advertising business expense.
