Campania International Petey Dog Statue

Yes, cast stone is a dense, weather-resistant material designed for outdoor use. It holds up well against the elements, though we recommend placing it on a stable, level surface to prevent settling.

No, this is a freestanding piece. Because it weighs 78 pounds, it is heavy enough to remain stable on a patio or garden path without needing to be anchored.

You can clean the statue by gently rinsing it with a garden hose. For tougher dirt or debris, use a soft-bristled brush and mild soap, avoiding harsh chemicals that might affect the Brownst finish.

Like most outdoor finishes, the color may develop a natural patina or soften slightly after prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and rain. This weathering process is typical for cast stone and often adds to the statue's authentic, lived-in character.

While you can place it on grass, we recommend setting it on a stone paver, gravel, or a patio surface. Placing it directly on soil or grass can lead to moisture absorption from the ground, which may cause the base to discolor or settle unevenly over time.
