Historical Background:

Border Fine Arts was a highly respected Scottish company, founded in 1974, known for its high-quality, hand-painted 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.
