I (we) could probably understand this a lot better if we knew the SN of the gun Brad is showing. If the "male style" dog disappeared after Anschutz died, who did the "female style" dog on Brad's restored gun that you are attributing to Anschutz?? Or are you simply assuming that both styles are indeed his work absent direct reference via Stock or Order Book notation(s), e.g., "see Anschutz" under 'engraving'? I'm confused here.

Compare the style of the engraved dogs - obviously done by the same hand.
There is no documented evidence of what I'm stating about the engraver and of these particular dogs but I've studied this particular engraver's style for a number of years and what I've stated is my conviction alone. I'm not afraid to be wrong, but I'll need to be convinced of it. .
