Hi Friends,

i found and bought some very interesting dogs:

Very nice, Torben Where did you get them ?

My friend in New York, who unfortunately recently passed away, had the Boston Terrier and English Bull Terrier that she would use with her Breyer models. I always meant to ask where she got them from.

They are really nice, never heard of them before. They remind me of models you collect in food packets like cereal or something, they are nicer quality though.

Congratulations on getting so many of them. They are great. Thanks for sharing.

I love all of them. Congratulations! Especially the "Staffordshire Bull Terrier" and tried to figure out what is the breed? when I first bought it.

Gratuliere Torben, i saw them already on your site before.
And i know Kenny has lots of them, shown on his site on collectors Quest.
Lots of dog-models they made!

I found this dog in the local flea market last Sunday. It is now in my trades page because I'm offering it for trade.

Nice

Vallérie, your model is from the Novelty series from 1988 while those Torben are showing are from the My Best Friend series from 2008. Obviously there isn't anything wrong on it. Let me know if you ever find the Boxer and the Doberman from the latter series, I'd love to have them. :)

What a beautiful Dobermann, I love their novelty dogs!
Such an elegant pose showing the proud nature of this breed!

I know, I saw it on Toy Animal Info when I wanted to put it in. I indeed saw it already was in the site with all its toyline!

You can have it if you want, I put it in my trades list in the Market Place. I will look for the Boxer and the other Doberman in the flea market next time I go there.

I am interested in the other Doberman from My Best Friend series, not exactly this one. I wanted to tell it here to avoid that any eventual interested does not get it because of my post.
It won't be hard for you to find a owner for it. It is in a beautiful pose.

Maybe Bonnie will be interested?

Thank you so much for thinking of me, it's a lovely model and very kind of you to offer it!
I'm actually saving up to buy a set with this Dobermann in, with some other dogs too, but I'm sure you will find this wonderful dog a home!

Good. Because someone else wanted it and it is already shipped to its new home.

I had a chance today to briefly visit a Tractor Supply, and they had lots of sets with dogs. I didn't get a chance to go through them, but I noticed lots of Goldens and a few Dalmatians and Labs, Paige that Brittany was in a few sets so hopefully will start turning up on the secondary market. I think I saw a set with a few small deer (of course there were cattle) but I didn't notice many animals besides the dogs.

I saw the run of the older sets with the puppies and an adult or two and the accessories at my local store. I hope to see the brittany become more common in less expensive sets! Thanks for the heads up!

Rural King has toys on clearance; most of their holiday line was New Ray and Big Country. They had some dog/puppy sets; Goldens, Labs, Dalmatians, German Shepherds, several generic puppies without adults and these Border Collies. The sitting one is a new pose to me.

Oh wow, I haven't ever seen those before. GREAT find!

Nice catch

Fantastic set,congrats!

I didn't know them. Does the other side of the blister shows the available sets?

Rogerio, no it doesn't.  If I can make it back there soon (over 50 miles, but good prices and selection on pet/livestock supplies) I will try to get photos and/or more sets if they have them. Other than a Schleich display toys are a seasonal item for them, and they were already on steep clearance.

Wrong place for it, but here are a couple of the Big Country sets. I didn't pick up any of these.

That's very kind of you but I didn't know it was so far. However, I am curious, I thought we had all New-Ray dogs listed on TAW.
