Beautiful engraving! Are the dogs full relief? Or cut in as line drawings?

The entire scene is relief engraving. And the more wear, the better it looks because the deep background doesn’t have nearly the exposure to handling. The dogs, the trees, the fences, the rocks. Now,
Some guns have deeper engraving than others but I’ve never seen a 5 or a Crown that didn’t look realistic. And the dogs actually look like dogs, not cartoon characters scratched out on a piece of scrap paper over beers at a bar.
