DouglasDooley Dalmatian Dog Plush Stuffed Animal

SUMMARY:The best durability I have ever seen in a plush toy, ever which = insane value for your money. Also, a manageable size which my 4 year old prefers as it is easier to make the dog stand and play with.IN DETAIL:In total I have purchased three of these Dalmatians. What you see here is the OG and the other is #3. Not pictured is #2. A veteran mom told me to get two of my child’s favorite lovey and switch them out every couple of weeks so they wear down @the same rate. I’ve been doing it over a year. “Dot” the Dalmatian, lovingly named by my 4 yr. old goes with us EVERYWHERE. Dot sleeps with us, goes in the car, once fell into chicken noodle soup, goes to grandmas, plays in the chalk, and Dot even played in the sprinkler one time!You see a raggedly stuffed animal and think “Wow! 1 year? Unimpressed.” But you would be WRONG. My 4yr old is not a careful first born. She’s a third born no limits juggernaut who plays H A R D.BOTH Dot #1 and Dot #2 are looking rough when they should be DISINTEGRATED. Dot #2 is not pictured because I couldn’t pry it from my toddlers loving death grip while asleep.Where other plush toys have ripped, not washed well, or lost fur these Douglas dogs are practically eternal. My kid loves LOVES all dogs but is obsessed with Dalmatians. She has tons of other Dalmatians stuffed animals and they are in much worse condition and NONE OF them are played with to the extent of these Douglas dogs. I think she prefers them because they are under 10 inches (the perfect size for a small child) and, as Ive already said, MADE OUT OF UNICORN HAIR AND MIRACLES.I will be hand washing and carefully “aging” Dot #3 to replace Dot #1 in my game of “the favorite toy swap” since post 1 & 1/2 yrs of pulling, loving, playing, a couple accidental washing machine and/or dryer trips…. Dot #1 is nearing the end.

This is not a Douglas Cuddle Toy. It may be a Douglas, but not the 65-year-old+ Douglas Cuddle Toy brand you may have thought it would be when looking it up (at least, it wasn't the Douglas brand I was looking up when I came across it).Regardless, this small dog plush is the perfect size for an 18-inch doll or as a small plush to gift a little one in your life. It has soft fluffy fabric, is easy to wash, and is stuffed/sewn in such a way that it can stand independently without wiring. Overall? Great product!

I purchased this stuffed animal Dalmatian as a birthday present for a little one. I confess that I didn't pay too much attention to the item's measurements, so consequently, I was a little surprised that it was a bit smaller than expected. HOWEVER, I wouldn't dock any points, because A) that's on me for neglecting to read the entirety of the description and B) its size was actually the perfect fit for the recipient's age. Furthermore, the stuffed Dalmatian is extremely soft, making it an ideal cuddle buddy. Its appearance is also very pretty. If you're looking for a stuffed animal Dalmatian for a little one (especially a 1-year-old or 2-year-old), I would recommend that you consider this one.

This says it the size was approximately 15x11. As you can see in the picture with an 8 1/2x11 paper, it is not even as big as the paper. They need to fix the description. This is going back.

Got this as a stocking stuffer for my son, it was a little smaller than expected it it’s extremely soft! Great for babies and toddlers

Bought for a little girl that is handicapped. She loves it and doesn't go anywhere without it.

The dog is fine. Looks a little cheap for a Douglas brand stuffy. The problem I have with it is it has way too many spots and they’re all way too similar in size, shape and distance from each other. The dog almost could pass for black lab or a dog covered in polka dots there are so many spots. We got this to be the pup to the Douglas 16” Dalmatian (which is awesome!) and this feels like something from a dollar store.

Cute little gift for the 101 year old Grandma who has everything! Soft and made pretty well.
