I was working with my friend Jason back in 1999 when he developed this sculpture to take to a taxidermy competetion. It was such a hit he had several made and molded. He had a good run with them, but hasnt't done alot with them since the World Trade Center attacks. They are gaining popularity again, and he has just ordered another 35. You provide several pictures of your Lab and he paints them up. We put the bird of your choice in the bust. Imagine a wood duck, Canvasback, mallard or mottled duck and it is a show stopper for any waterfowler's trophy room.  Thanks for looking - Matt

They're not looking for one thing right....they're looking for one thing wrong.

I've seen 'em selling for 750.00 in other parts of the country, but the Bird Mount in my shop would be 295.00 and the Scuplture would be 305.00...so $600.00 out the door.

Dude your awesome. Hey I don't really duck hunt but I do a lot of white wing hunting could you do one like that. How much? Shoot me a text.

More taxidermist should have your creativity. I have never seen so many cool mounting ideas than what I have seen you develop and create. I am not a duck hunter but am seriously thinking I should take it up just to have you do some awesome mounts for me Great job man!!!!!!!

Is there a contact for just the lab? thanks. Just google, "Grady Taxidermy in Searcy Arkansas". You can buy one from them.

Are labs the only dogs available, I would love something like that with my English pointer and a pheasant Jason tells me that he has a smaller version that can be altered and painted to look like an upland K9. The pheasant idea would be awesome.

That's awesome about making changes to have it look like my pointer. I'm sure you're a busy man producing all the awesome looking mounts you make. What's the best way to get in touch with you to go forward on the english pointer?

I think the upland idea would turn out awesome.
