Description: The replica mascot was presented by The Physiological Society to Professor Ronald Whittam, FRS, a distinguished physiologist. The bronze statuette is The Physiological Society’s mascot. The dog is depicted in the middle of the canine scratch reflex. The statuette is thought to be from 17th Germany. The physiologist Rudolph Magnus (1873-1927), was given it by his father. Magnus in turn gave it to the British physiologist Sir Charles Sherrington, who gave it to Sir Henry Dale, who donated it to The Physiological Society in October 1942.
