IN THE GREYTSTORE
 
Not everyone can have an actual dog, but these Perfect Petzzz can fill a need. These little guys actually seem to be breathing. We've actually found that they are a comfort to those in assisted living & nursing homes, not to mention kiddos that aren't really ready for a real pet, yet (Perfect for under the tree on Christmas morning!). Hand covered synthetic fur pet comes with adoption certificate, collar set, bed and hair brush. Breathes continuously for three to four months on the same single D battery. Great for children, home, office, dormitories, nursing homes and assisted living facilities. Each pet measures approximately 10 x 7.5 x 3.5 inches. Bonus: Comes with one D battery. 
Available in: Bulldog, Pug, King Charles Spaniel, Yorkie, Schnauzer, and Mutt!
