Amazing statue of the one and only Nipper, the dog who served as the model for a painting titled His Master's Voice. Nipper was born in 1884 in Bristol, England, and died in September 1895. He was a mixed-breed dog and probably part Jack Russell Terrier, although some sources suggest that he was a Smooth Fox Terrier, or "part Bull Terrier". He was named Nipper because he would bite the backs of visitors' legs. Height: 37 cm / 14 1/2 inch
