I bought this puzzle in January 2009 and have put it together twice. I think it will become a favorite. I have several Christmas puzzles, and most of those as well as my non-holiday ones are Springbok. My Mom started buying them for me in the 1980s, and I have continued after an absence of several years. I still enjoy my old ones, and the new ones are a challenge because the pieces are cut with a different layout. You just can't beat the quality.

Loved this puzzle! It was just hard enough to keep you with it but, not frustrate. I didn't find the dog's tail til very close to completing the puzzle. The subdued colors were every bit as fun as the bright colors of ones I've done before.

This puzzle was very difficult and frustrating. If you like a challenge this one is for you.

Of the 13 Springbok puzzles I completed in 2008, this was my very favorite one( as others have said, I ONLY buy Springbok), though finding that dog's tail piece was my biggest problem. Although I donate the puzzles I complete to a local nursing home, I kept this one and look forward to meeting its challenge with the same enthusiasm. This is a beauty!
