Next update.

And for Lilias, the beagle is indeed a custom, as are the red border collie, the bull terrier pup, and bulldog pup, white boxer, red husky, etc. 

I do not know the brand of the yellow collie pup, perhaps Kelly does? I don't think it has a stamp...

(Loving all the dogs)
I got it at a flea market, sorry I have no idea the brand. I wondered if it was a fashion doll accessory.

Thank you so much for the information! Fashion doll accessory definitely sounds like a possibility, I'll keep a lookout for it!
More dogs! So many of those poodles ae real treasures, the two retired Papo are wonderful as are the two rare Schleich! I also actually really like the new Scheich one too, I think the texture has been done so well, looks really white and fluffy! Great corgis and Bassets (With some nice customs mixed in too!) I love the trotting Safari model, unusual pose and very sweet! The Schleich and Papo bassets especially are a lovely pair! Lovely cockers, the older Schleich has a very friendly look, always reminds me of a dog I feel I have known before but can't quite place when... I think it's the individuality this model has something in the face looks like a real dog! Love the cavaliers too, and I was actually really happy with the CollectA when I got it as I didn't expect it to be so nice! Jack Russells! The new Schleich looks really sweet in that photo, but the others are all lovely too. All those French bulldogs are marvellous, it seems that the brands make this breed really well, and the Peterkin model was a beautiful surprise! And I really like the newer Schleich, so delicately painted. And I am so happy that Papo gave us a smooth fox, nice and unusual!
Another wonderful update!

Many beautiful packs more!

Great selection again-love the little hood hounds and the older Schleich poodles!

Thank you all again! Sadly, this is the last dog day...

Love the pugs!

This must be the most complete dogs collection I have ever seen. I don't think I've seen Susanne's that has to be endless..

I am slowly floating on a dog sea, nothing to say, just looking at and floating 

I'm sad that it's the last day but what an incredible few days it has been, you have the most amazing collection! And it's so big too, wow! So many dogs, and even for each breed, you have lots of different models!
I love the variety of all three Dachshund coat types, the Papo wire-haired is stunning and as I think I've said before so much like the last winner of Crufts- but it's also so nice to have the three varieties all made by Schleich, and I also love the pose of the Kaiyodo! Very sweet yorkies, it's hard to pick a favourite but I actually really like the tiny Schleich one, it almost doesn't feel like their style but I think he has such a sweet face! Perfect pugs, I really do think there is a wonderful selection out there! The Schleich family are beautiful, as are the very lovable Bullyland pair- and the Wing Mau surprised me a lot, it's really nice too! Your little Chihuahua custom is so lovely too, I love your repainting style, I think I've said it before but the clean yet realistic look really appeals to me! The Papo scotties are incredible, as is the CollectA Shih Tzu, and your beautiful Buck custom! I think this one is my favourite of all that you've done! A great way to finish, with all the gorgeous mixed breed dog models, I love the white fluffy one who looks a bit like a maremma, the Schleich, Papo and golden pup with ball- too many dogs to love!

It's been great seeing all these, I've enjoyed recognising the dog breeds and thinking of ones I've known personally or just met in passing. I think dog figures are something we can all relate to in some way - even people who don't collect mini dogs, or know any real ones, must be familiar with so many breeds, so it's easy to enjoy a collection like this!

I think Buck is my favourite out of all of them

Thank you for this huge and beautiful dogs display!

Thank you everybody! Dogs were probably one my first loves in collecting, but unlike my horse collection the dogs remain active! Tomorrow will be our feline friend's day and then the display on Sunday. :) Glad you all have enjoyed the presentation so far! And thank you Bonnie and George for enjoying my Buck portrait, I quite like him as well. Perhaps more than normal as I never expected a mould to be available for him!

P.S. Bonnie, my WM pug pup is repainted by myself. A few of them were "touched" up to clean up the paintwork, including models like the dobie pup also. And my chihuahua custom is also inspired by a dog we used to have. His name was Elvis, but unfortunately he was not a very nice individual, though he was pretty to look at.

Glad the dogs remain active, it's so fun seeing your dog additions!
And thank you for the details, I really like the little adjustments! A shame about Elvis but I guess that some dogs can be like that, but definitely agree he is beautiful to look at!

Wonderful,wonderful collection of canines!!!

Thanks Bonnie! He was the only mean streak dog we had, something that happens with some dogs just like with people. I suppose Buck is just as handsome, if not more so with his much kinder personality.

Thank you Taylor!

Now on to domestic cats!

Very enjoyable few days, loved all the dogs! If I had deeper pockets, I could easily see being a dog collector. Very happy to see a few old friends in such congenial surroundings!

Buck is my favorite too

Thank you Kelly!  

An early upload as I am preoccupied tonight. Domestic cat and dog display!

Thanks Lilias, Andreas, Taylor, and Alain!

Now we have passed through most of the "niche" collecting categories... here is what many have been waiting for... mammalian wildlife! Starting with my African bookcase and specifically my primates:
