Mr. Prairie Dog was carved from Mexican onyx by Alex Tsethlikai.  It has a sweetly carved face, tiny ears, detailed paws and tail, and inlaid turquoise eyes.  The offering bundle is a teal arrowhead with turquoise and red beads.  We love that prairie dogs "kiss" their closest friends and family by touching their front teeth together!

Size: 2.375" H x 1" L x .5" W
