Does anyone know where I can locate patterns to make a mailbox into a
dog with added wooden pieces?
I have tried several woodworking pattern companies and no one seems
to have them available. Thanks for any help!

Yes.

Try craft pattern companies, not woodworking. Or, probably most of
the craft magazines at Wally-World, or a newstand.

To each his/her own.

Try these guys. They have a few different mailbox patterns.

Be sure to mount it on an eight inch I beam to make it vandal proof.

Ah, you've not thought it thru. Maybe a section of railroad track,
concealed in a thin veneer of wood, only to make it look presentable,
not to make it seem an easy target to knock over with a vehicle. Not
that I would actually expect anyone to purposely hit it with a vehicle,
of course.

I have one approximately mailbox-sized dog which I will gladly ship to
the address of your choice. Doesn't eat much, but poops a lot.
