dog says whee

This excellent ceramic toy - want! - dates from the Veracruz area of Mexico circa 450-650 AD (PreColumbian period).  It measures roughly 3 x 4 inches and still retains traces of its original paint.  How little and clever it is.  Though primitive in execution, the dog has a sprightly character in its posture and even its funny face.  Don't you want to tie his wagon to a string and drag him around?
