Aurora - Hand Puppet - 10 Garth Dog

I actually bought this for my dog, so my durability rating may not be accurate for a child. The eyes were the first to go. They were chewed off immediately. However, my dog loves it. The beak is a little hard to get fingers into.

Great hand puppet:

It is a great interactive dog toy. I play with my dog with it for a good 15 minutes then put the toy away. Each time I bring it out he’s so excited to see it. If you never let them actually take it off they will love it.

I use the puppet to wrestle my cat so he doesnt wrestle my hands when we are not playing. He loves it. Very cute and soft. My cat and I are playing very rough with it seems very durable so far.

I bought this T-Rex for a friend for her birthday. Now, we are adults, and it was more of a gag gift. She was always saying how she wished she had a T-Rex when she was at work to destroy things when she got frustrated. I was worried that the puppet wouldnt fit comfortably on her had since, like I said, we are adults. I had my husband try it on when it arrived and it fit easily on his hands, and he has large hands. So if you order this then you should be able to play with it yourself, and put on puppet shows with your child. Or, if you are like my group of friends, put on puppet shows for your own entertainment. I gave it 4 stars for durability only because of the teeth. I think they will probably hold up well, but the way they are made they end up being a little crooked, which I really think adds some character to the puppet. But some people might not like that. Weve had so much fun with this puppet that Ive just ordered 2 more, one for myself, and one for another friend.

I bought this so I could play with my cat without getting scratched but my hand is a bit big for it. I guess it is made for a child to use.

I bought this for my classroom and my students love it, they named him Kevin

I have a little Chorkie that loves to play with my hand so I decided to get a dog for her to play with instead. She loves playing with this puppet on my hand. I did cut the strings that held the ears against his head to give him the ability to flop his ears. I really wonder if she knows its not another dog.

My grand daughter (3 yrs old) absolutely loves this puppet. Shes played with it constantly over a period of three months so far. However, an adult hand in the puppet caused the stitching to come undone around the thumb. I had to reinforce the stitching after only two weeks of use.

This is well stuffed/padded which was very important as I use these puppets to play with my blind dog. It is the only kind of toy that we can play with together; obviously he cant play ball or chase after a good stick but he can go after these puppets. Because of the heavy stuffing I dont feel anything when he chomps down on one of these cute puppets!
