Border Collie Carved Stick

This stick is carved from oak and is of a border collie dog called "Gemma". My sister asked me to make this stick of her dog. She sent me various photographs and I have copied them as closely as possible. The shank of the stick is hazel and a nickel collar is fitted between the head and shank with "Gemma" engraved on it (not visible on the photo). The shank has been oiled for durability.
