NOTE: The Great Dane is currently dressed for Halloween. To see Hunter without a costume please visit the link below.

This sculpture located at 1228 Sealy (facing 13th Street) is entitled "Great Dane," by artist Dayle Lewis. The homeowners own a beautiful, gentle, grey Great Dane, named Hunter. The tree had actually grown around the fence at the spot where the paws grip the fence. This sculpture sustained the only vandalism that we are aware of. Just after it was finished, someone stole one of the paws. The homeowner offered a reward...$50.00 for the return of the paw; $500.00 for the hands of the thief! The sculptor, who was still on the Island, carved and installed a new paw.
