Wooden dog – Wauzi plywood cutout, 3–50 cm

The children's birthday party is coming up. The craft table is set with paints and brushes. All that's missing is a motif that makes the children's eyes light up. The wooden dog "Wauzi" is made for this. It's a dog made of wood as an unfinished cutout. You can paint it, decorate it with stickers or simply leave it natural, just as you like. That's how a plain piece of plywood becomes a door sign, table scatter or gift tag.

What changes for you

• You can start straight away without any preparation. The wood is unfinished, so paint, glue or oil stick to it directly.
• You get exactly the size that suits your project – thanks to a height you can choose freely from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
• Your craft project looks neat. The cutout is laser-cut and has smooth edges with the typical brown rim.
• You save time and money on bigger projects. You can order Wauzi singly or in a set of 10, 25, 50 or 100.
• You can decorate with a good feeling. Every dog is made in Bütic's own production in Pößneck, Thuringia.

Why this wooden dog makes a difference every day

On the window, on the nursery door or on a festive table: a dog silhouette in natural wood looks unfinished and light. That sets it apart from shop-bought ready-made decorations. Because you design it yourself, you create something personal. It's a little piece that tells stories and suits your home. And when children craft along, what hangs on the door isn't just a decoration. It's an afternoon spent together.

Material & finish

Wauzi is laser-cut from 3 mm plywood. This gives smooth edges without splinters and a clean outline. Nothing needs sanding afterwards. The fine brown rim is created during laser cutting. It's part of the typical look of these cutouts. The wood is left unfinished, so it's neither varnished nor stained. You can paint it, oil it, stick things on it or leave it natural. Wood is a purely natural material. So each cutout varies slightly in shade and may show small irregularities or knots in the grain. That's exactly what makes every piece unique.

How to use the wooden dog

• Crafting with children: everyone paints their own Wauzi. In the end, a whole colourful dog family moves into the children's room.
• As a door sign: write a name on a large wooden dog. The nursery door instantly has a face.
• As a gift tag: tie small sizes onto a present for dog lovers. The gift feels personal even before it's unwrapped.
• As table scatter: spread small Wauzis across the birthday table or on wooden slices. The table tells the story of the four-legged guest of honour.
• In the window: hang larger cutouts as window decorations. A friendly four-legged friend greets people from outside.
• In your business: use it at a dog grooming salon, a vet's practice or a market stall as counter decoration or a sign you can write on. It's quick to set up and fits the theme.

Good to know about dogs

The dog has always been a symbol of loyalty and friendship. Hardly any other animal stands so strongly for close bonds. That's why the motif works not only as decoration but also as a small gesture. Use it as a tag on a gift for dog lovers, as a keepsake of your own four-legged friend or as a welcome greeting on the door.

Care & durability

There's not much you need to do. Simply keep the unfinished cutout dry and avoid constant moisture. That way the wood keeps its shape and stays nice for a long time. If you paint or oil Wauzi, you protect the surface even more. And you give it your own look at the same time.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint the wooden dog? Yes. The plywood is unfinished. You can paint it, oil it, stick things on it or decorate it however you like.

Why does the cutout have a brown edge? The edge is created during laser cutting and is typical of this cutting method. Laser cutting also gives smooth, clean edges.

Do all cutouts look the same? The shape is always identical, but the wood as a natural material is not. Shade and grain vary, and small knots are normal. Every piece is unique.

How wide is the dog at my chosen height? For reference: at 10 cm high, Wauzi measures 7 cm wide. The proportions stay the same for all sizes.

Are there bulk discounts for bigger projects? You can order Wauzi singly or as a set of 10, 25, 50 or 100. That's ideal for craft groups, schools or shop decorations.

What counts is the moment a child proudly holds up the dog they painted themselves. Or the moment your gift brings a smile thanks to a little tag. Just choose your size and get started.
