Vintage Collie German Shepherd Dog Porcelain Collectible Figurine Made in Brazil

Description

This is an unusual vintage porcelain of what looks to be a Collie dog or possibly a German Shepherd Dog.  Rin Tin Tin?  When I purchased it, I was informed it was a version of Lassie but I cannot verify whether that is what this porcelain dog originally represented.
This happy looking Collie or Shepherd is white with a brownish coppery iridescence in its' fur which shimmers in bright light.  He/she has a green collar and the Collie is sitting on a simple, almost oval shaped, base.
This dog figurine is about 5" long, 2 1/2" wide and almost 8" tall.  A nice size piece.
The porcelain has a "MADE IN BRAZIL" stamp or tag on the bottom along with the number "177" which seems to have been inscribed in the ceramic clay before firing.
This funny, happy Collie-or German Shepherd- is in great condition--I haven't found any chips on it-- and is ready to display in your home.
I ship as soon as possible upon receiving cleared payment and will contact buyer if there are any delays due to weather, illness etc. I ship only within the USA and Canada at this time.
