Melissa & Doug Giant Black Lab - Lifelike Stuffed Animal Dog (over 2 feet tall)

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Our grand niece loved it! Perfect choice for her!

Very life like large stuffed dog; given as a gift. A good quality Melissa and Doug product; stands evenly on all four legs without tipping. Is huggable, but not for sitting on. Make sure you have the space for this standing dog.

I use it as a display and everyone loves it . They say it looks so real. It’s large too

This Dog is the cutest thing! The picture on Amazon was not as cute as the actual product, so soft and so unique! The ears…eyes.. so soft and so perfect!I Highly recommend this dog to anyone wanting to give a special gift!

My son was getting treatment at St. Jude for AML Leukemia. We were there from January to July 2021. It was the middle of CoVID so we were all alone just me and him. The rest of my family could not be there to limit his exposureto germs because the chemo kills his immune system. I would love to tell you he missed his brothers and sisters, but the truth is he really missed his dog. She is a black lab. His mom found this dog and decided get it for him. It arrived in a big box and he was grinning from ear to ear when he opened it. That dog became our mascot! Every day we took turns moving it to random parts of the house, and surprised any maintenance or cleaning staff who entered the apartment. Some nights the dog ran away to other patients rooms with toys or cookies in its service harness. It would return to us a few hours/ days later with notes or gifts from other patients. My son named him ChemoSabe. That poor dog was lucky he didn't have his coat petted off while he lived at St. Jude. He was very sturdy and survived a 12 year old trying to ride him... never lost his shape! The only problem was when we finally went home our "real" dog was not to thrilled with the new dog that Jackson brought with him. The price of this dog has gone up quite a bit since we bought ours, but I still think it is a good deal. We just sent one to another St. Jude family and can't wait to hear stories about their adventures!

I love this product

For eight year old granddaughter. It was perfect in weight color and size. If you cannot have a live one, then this is the one for you.

The turned head style could be an issue as the previous one bought for the Humane Society volunteer training looked straight ahead. Our dog is used to train volunteer dog walkers on how to approach a dogs to put on their collar and/or harness. So the area around his head and neck were very worn and there were a lot of holes, mostly in the seams between his legs and on his belly. The head position of the new dog makes it a little more awkward than what we've been used to, but then dogs do not generally hold that still either! Because the fabric on the "old" dog didn't hold up well, I contacted the company and asked if they would recover the one we had, but they said no. So I bought the new dog and it will be some time before we can tell how well he holds up. I patched and sewed up all the holes in the raggedy old dog so that the classes now have 2 "models" to demonstrate on.
