Description
This framed MDF plaque puts a cheerful truth on the wall: life is better with a dog. A little grey dog figure with floppy ears sits raised from the panel, its surface speckled and textured. Beneath it, the words LIFE IS BETTER run in black capitals over a fine rule, with 'with a Dog' in a friendly italic underneath and a pair of small black bones to finish. The off-white panel is printed all over with pale grey bones, and the whole design sits inside a square white box frame. The front measures 14.8cm by 14.6cm and the plaque is 3.4cm deep.
Its small square size suits a short stretch of wall where a bigger picture would crowd things: beside the front door, along a hallway, near a dog bed in the kitchen or living room, or above a desk in a home office. The white and grey colouring sits easily with neutral schemes. It makes a fond gift for anyone who shares their home with a dog, and since the little figure is a dog in general rather than any one breed, it suits a spaniel household as well as a terrier one.
The frame and panel are MDF, and the back carries a sawtooth hanger centred along the top edge, so it hangs from a single nail or picture hook. Its 3.4cm depth lets it stand a little proud of the wall, which gives the raised figure a soft shadow. Dust it with a soft dry cloth; if the frame needs more, a barely damp cloth will do, but avoid soaking it, as MDF does not take kindly to water. We like it at eye level, where the words can be read in passing, or hung beside a favourite photograph of the dog in question, and it makes a warm, easy present for a fellow dog owner.
