The overall color of the sculpture is a weathered light gray with darker gray patches. The body is in a sitting position with the back legs bent underneath. The head is tilted back with the mouth open as if howling. The ears are triangular and pointed. The eyes are not defined. The sculpture has a textured surface with visible marks and grooves from the carving process. The background is a dark gray color.
