This German shepherd is made of polished aluminum (10 ½ inches from tail to nose) and has wings, like the angel of a pet he is. Your paw-fect pet tree topper comes with a heavy-duty clip to attach it to the top of the tree. If the shepherd in your life is too special and angelic to be displayed only once a year on the tree, feel free to detach it after the holidays and display it elsewhere (shelf art, yard stake, wall art) during the year.
