Vienna Bronze Bergmann German Shepherd

This is a superb bronze of a German shepherd made in the Vienna area in the 20th century. It came with a bunch of very nice antique Vienna cold painted Bronze animals including some signed Fritz Bergmann which this is one of. I think they are still making these today so I am not sure how old the piece is. Looks newer than most of the other pieces in this bunch so I think it is fairly modern. The figure is very well modeled and hand painted with lots of detail It looks to be in great condition with the tip of the nose missing the paint, tiny spots on the tip of each ear, two small spots on the tail, the underside of the tongue and a bit of paint missing of the left back paw. It displays nicely and is not very obvious when on display. The piece is marked underneath the belly with the gold circular Fritz Bergmann company mark as shown. Maybe someone out there knows more about them in terms of age, etc. and could give me a hand. It certainly would be appreciated. The piece is 3.125 inches tall, 1 inch wide and 4.125 inches long. Please email me for more information or other pictures.
