Schleich 13835 Labrador Retriever Welpe

The tiny tail and those big, shiny eyes capture puppy energy perfectly. It stands sturdy on its own, so my kid can play with it without it tipping over constantly.

The little floppy ears and that hopeful head-tilt pose are spot-on for a real lab pup. It's small but sturdy, so my kid can carry it around everywhere without me worrying about breakage. We've already got it sitting on the bookshelf next to our actual dog's photo.

My nephew loves his new little pup—the painted-on eyes make it look so alert and lifelike. It's just the right size for his small hands to carry around on all his adventures.
