Melissa & Doug Black Lab - Plush

This is wayyyy bigger than my daughter expected we thought it would just be a hand sized dog so worth the money.

I brought this present for my niece, she absolutely loves it! Great quality and so life like. Thank you

Very cute

Lovely dog, true to life. Good quality and value for money

Havingvrecently lost the family pet dog, my grandson instantly fell in love with this dog when he saw it as a prize at a xmas fayre. Sadly he didn't win it, but it did make choosing a xmas gift for him very easy and his reaction on xmas morning was heartwarming. 18 months old and he remembered it instantly. This cuddly JackcRussel is extremely well made, very cute and very sturdy. I would definitely recommend for any dog loving children.

Weirdly lifelike! Purchased to be my demo dog in my puppy training classes, he's going to be a big help as he's a good size, stands up independently, and surprisingly has a very lifelike look so will do a great job of helping me to demonstrate various handling exercises etc.

My 8 year old daughter chose this when she wasn't allowed a real puppy for her birthday. I have to admit I fully expected him to be a bit rubbish but he's actually pretty great and the daughter loves him. It's not your average soft toy as it doesn't bend and can't really snuggle but it's a brilliant fake dog! He doesn't chew the furniture, doesn't need walking and he only eats pom poms so he's very cheap to run. He only needs the Amazon box for a bed too. I do think he is well made with nice sturdy legs and after 2 months of being taken all over the place and played with a lot he's still as good as new. I wouldn't recommend this as a normal cuddly toy but I really would if, like our 8 year old, you are looking for a fake dog that's realistic enough without being creepy.

As part of my job I visit schools to teach children about looking after dogs and staying safe around dogs (including greeting a dog appropriately and behaviour around dogs that are eating, in their bed, etc.). I had a border collie (of unknown brand!) helping me out, but poor Shep got a few holes in his belly and was bleeding polystyrene 'beans', plus was a bit bulky for getting on the bus, so he has now gone into retirement. Patch is the new pup, and is absolutely fantastic. My only concern is that being predominantly white he might get grubby, then I will have to test how well he washes up. But it is a very realistic Jack Russell size, shape and colour - he even has dark rings around his eyes - and I have been stopped and asked 'is that real?' even by adults - personally I think that, although realistic, it's still fairly obviously a toy! It has a very solidly stuffed body and a stiff wire frame, despite other reviews I find mine doesn't pose well and pings back into the standing shape but I am happy with that. If I'm nit picking one of the seams along a back paw wasn't finished properly, but it was such a tiny fault as to be unnoticeable. This is not really a toy to snuggle up in bed with, but if you are after a realistic looking toy dog you won't go far wrong with one of Melissa and Doug's.

Es un perro muy realista y en general muy bien hecho. Tiene calidad y se le ve resistente.El tamaño es muy bueno y tiene una textura suave

Barnbarn uppskattade hunden. Hon blev väldigt glad.

Well built, sturdy horse. My daughter loves it. She is 4 years old and over 30 lbs and can sit on it without the legs buckling. I ordered the Melissa & Doug unicorn for my other daughter and that was a disappointment. Nowhere near the same quality. If you are deciding between the two products, this one is the clear winner.

I bought this as a training decoy to work with my dog-reactive dogs...and boy howdy is it working as a convincing decoy! I have kept it hidden from the problem dogs, but even my mild-mannered dog-friendly dog was growling at it and trying to sniff its butt. The cats FREAKED, especially when I went and locked it in a closet! Even I scared myself when I left it in the bathroom momentarily and saw it out of the corner of my eye...confusion abounds. This fun little fake addition to my pack is perfect for creating a safe, controlled environment to work on dog reactivity with my REAL dogs. (And is very cute and soft, too) :) It is very sturdy, stands on its own with no problem, and is exactly as pictured. Perfect for dog trainers like myself to work on dog reactivity.

Sehr naturgemäßes aussehen, stabil, wie beschrieben, einfach süß
