I was searching some catalog sites and came across this. I have a feeling someone on this site may like it. I may, eventually, if I ever get my back yard put together!

This link is for a page or two earlier that shows one of the finished ones in a different breed.

I love these!!! They are so unique.....
Very interesting ! Thx for the link !
Not to mention, topiaries are not cheap! The last time I priced one, it was a train engine topiary (would have been for my dad, at his train-collecting height) and it was $138, so this one on sale, 12% off, at $67, is a pretty good deal 25 years later!
Oh, yeah, but. . .
This isn't acutally topiary - it's a wire frame for you to grow ivy all over and PRETEND it's topiary!
True topiary is usually made with privit hedge, which is a small leafed hedge you trim into dachshund shape. Good luck on THAT one!
I have a close friend who loves all dogs, but especially Greaat Pyrennes, Samoyeds, and American Eskimo (Spitz) dogs. Long, white fur in three sizes - medium, large, and loveseat-sized! Once we were walking together and a beautiful tricked-out standard poodle walked by in full show-ring hair, complete with bows. Shula brightly pointed and said, "Look, Karen, it's walking topiary!!"
That makes me laugh even now!
