There is always conflict in the world and here is a light-hearted take on the age old game of battle strategies fought out by our favourite household pets.

We have had fun here at Regency Chess trying to identify the various breeds of dog involved. We believe the Great Dane leads the pack as the noble king along with a spaniel as his queen. We have picked out a Pug, an Alsatian and little Westies posing as the pawns.

Whilst the cats have proved to be much more of challenge to identify, they certainly do not lack in detail. If you recognise any, we would love to hear from you.

Both sides are adorned in beautifully ornate, aristocratic-style dress with the rooks being depicted as miniature castles.

We have matched these chessmen with a beautiful 15.75 inch walnut and maple board from Spain to give you The Cats vs Dogs Chess Set. With or without the board, this is an enviable set for any cat, dog or animal lover.

Please note that as these pieces are hand painted, there may be some inconsistencies in the level of detail and colour and therefore your pieces may be very slightly different from the images shown. Any inconsistencies however are minimal.
