I purchased 2 of these dogs. They look good in the catalog, that's why I bought them, but when you see them in person they look cheap and very lite. They are not no 28 pounds each. The product quality is very poor, it looks like plastic up close. It does not meet my expectations I thought they be more realistic than they are. It Is not worth it that's my opinion. But on the plus side it is very well packed in the box. RockyRocky
I bought a set of the foo dogs last January 27, 2014 (only a year ago) for $349.00. The description of the item said that these dogs were "weather resistant. I live in Morgan Hill, CA where it does not even snow and the weather has not been that cold either. But last month, only 13 months after buying the items, one of the dogs head cracked. Also, only a few months after the purchase, the vase paint has bubbled and fallen off. I did not care about that part, but I do care about the head that severely cracked and the other is about to do the same. This item is very expensive and does not even fit the description of resisting weather. Let's see how Toscano helps me with this….Piedad
