About Us
A little bit about our mission, vision and philosophy. We still juggle our full time jobs and the metal business. We define our mission as providing a quality hand crafted product at an affordable price, through a financially successful and competitive business, and having fun while we do it! We acknowledge that this type of business could be solely operated through the internet and UPS (United Parcel Service), however we enjoy the face-to-face interaction with our customers. We will continue to display our hand crafted items at art show, craft fairs, dog shows, selected galleries, garden and wildlife centers. Feedback to us is more than a paid invoice. We have invested countless hours with dog breeders and dog owners, wildlife biologists, friends and neighbors, refining each design to meet breed standards or represent what you might expect to find in nature. Of course, our whimsical characters are purely intended to bring delight to you and visitors to your garden. Our unique marble rust finish sets us apart. We know it will be copied by the competition, so remember, you saw it here first! We continue to develop strategies to streamline our production, to enhance the quality our customers have come to expect, keep costs low, while continuing to expand our produce line to meet our customer's requests without sub-contracting any part of the process. We don't have any employees or family members helping out. This is a two person show

Sometimes we clean-up quite nicely
