Historical Background:

Border Fine Arts was a highly respected Scottish company, founded in 1974, known for its highquality, handpainted figurines of animals and rural scenes. They were particularly celebrated for their realistic and detailed portrayals of farm animals and wildlife. In 1999, the company was acquired by Enesco, a global leader in giftware, which continued to distribute the Border Fine Arts brand. This figurine represents a legacy of Scottish craftsmanship and is a cherished collectible for enthusiasts of the brand and dog lovers alike.
