Bronze Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier Sculpture
The Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier is a breed of dog originating in Ireland. There are four coat varieties: Traditional Irish, Heavy Irish, English, and American. These dogs have a single coat which sheds very little hair, so they can be more easily tolerated by people allergic to other breeds.

Highlights are added to the surface of the bronze dog sculpture
I took a scotch-brite pad and rubbed most of the surface of the bronze in order to remove the liver of sulfur patina from the highest points. The next step is to apply wax sealer to the entire bronze. The wax will protect the bronze and allow the patina to show it's true colors. The wax sealer is an on going maintenance that must be applied a few times per year if you wish to keep the bronze looking new. In door displays do not need the constant maintenance.
