The sculpture depicts a dog in a leaping posture, captured mid-stride with all four legs extended. It is rendered in a monochromatic style, appearing to be made of metal, accentuated by texture that suggests a cast or hammered surface. The dog's form is elongated and streamlined, with muscle definition carved into the body. The sculpture is mounted on a vertical pole, presented in a suspended position, enhancing its lifelike depiction of movement. The image includes a drawn scale and the signature "Gordon Sawdon" at the bottom right corner.
