 Dog
Statues and sculptures represent one of the most
popular sections of our Animal Gallery.
Known over the years as hunters, herders, guards
and companions, dogs have played a significant
role in man’s society. The first appearance
of the domestic dog dates back 20,000 years ago
when man first realized that the dog could be
a key tool during the hunt, whether for sniffing
a trail, pointing a target, or flushing a cozy.
As man’s survival needs changed and evolved
to life, as we know it today, the dog’s
role evolved as well.
Today, “Man’s Best Friend”
is a loyal companion awaiting the next command
of their master. It has even been stated in medical
journals that the companionship of a dog can contribute
to their owners’ physical and psychological
well-being. As well, canines are trained to assist
the handicap, to help the law officials detect
drug trafficking, and to sniff out concealed bombs
and weapons.
Statue.com honors the dog by offering the largest
selection of dog statues on the Internet. With
over 200 dog statues from which to choose, there
are realistic sculptures for just about every
popular breed of dog in the US. Of course we also
offer less realistic depictions of man’s
best friend as well as regional pieces like Asian
Fu Dogs and Egyptian Anubis. This gallery also
contains a large selection of wolf statues.
Please browse our selection in the Dog
Statues section of our Animal Gallery.
