    I found this old cast iron 6" dog at a yard sale. It looks like somekind of holder. Do you know what its for?

    No clue, but it sure looks cute. Can you hang it up? Put change in?

    Looks like it could either hold letters or a newspaper. Cool looking!

    I'm not sure as to it's use, but it is very similar to the cast iron dog in my son's backyard. I think they are adorable :D :D :D His is 3' tall and very realistic looking too.

    Silly question - How do you refer to a cat or a dog besides "cat" or "dog"?
