Among some recent findings in my attic, I came across a brown stuffed dog. He has plastic eyes which are painted and it looks like a worn embroidered nose. I have been doing many searches on antique and vintage stuffed animals I think I saw something about a Mohair dog, I may be wrong, but at any rate, I didn't find anything that was really close to this particular dog. I also know that he has metal or steel rods in its legs, there is a little bit of wearing from all the years and you can see the metal rods coming through the bottom of one of his paws. I don't know if it means anything, but I did see an episode of Antique Road Show not long ago that they had a Rod Bear on there, I tried looking into that, but there wasn't anything I could find about 'rod dogs' so I do know that this dog has the same kind of structure as that bear with the steel rods in its legs though, if that helps. I have been searching and searching and haven't found anything; If anyone knows.. Who is he? How old is he? What is he worth? I am very interested to find out..Thank you
