This puppy is my sons absolute favorite toy! He takes it everywhere with him! He won’t fall asleep without it. It’s soft enough to be a pillow and he just loves snuggling with him. I tried buying a second one as a backup when he tried to “give puppy a bath” or accidentally forgot it at grandmas. But he knew! He knew the other one was not THE puppy. Because his puppy has seen some things lol. However, after a year and a half it has held up very well and still soft with no repairs ever needed.
