Black and White Dog on Red Wheels Old Wooden Pull Toy for the academic I am pretty sure this

I am pretty sure this one dates to  the 1950s or so

Plus a handy hook on the end for hanging

it almost seems like hematite

which were extremely territorial and fiercely protective of one another

which makes me wonder a bit if they were in originally made with that intent

Black and White Dog on Red Wheels Old Wooden Pull Toy for the academic I am pretty sure thisI definitely have a weakness for old handmade pull toys, and think this is a pretty fun one. In addition to the fabulous paint job, I really love how the smaller front wheels tip this dog forward, such that he really seems as if he's riding a scooter. The shape of the whole is really pretty great, including those stippled black whiskers! 10 1 2" l x 7 5 8" t x 5 1 4" w. He lost his nose at some point, which was glued back on and is not loose.
