My daughter grabbed this pup the second it came out of the box and immediately started a whole vet-visit storyline with her 18” doll. The dog’s proportions feel just right next to her doll, and the fur is soft enough that she hasn’t put it down all afternoon.

I’m usually picky about doll accessories, but this pup’s floppy ears and soft fur make it feel like a real little buddy. My daughter has already staged three rescue adventures with it and her doll, and the dog stays put on the doll’s arm without slipping.

My daughter’s dolls finally have a proper sidekick—the dog’s floppy ears and soft fur make it feel like a real puppy during playtime. It’s already sparked a whole new storyline in her imagination, which is exactly what I hoped for.
