Fun
This is an exellent toy for all ages. Its educational porpose is about the dogs body parts. It is soft and i think it is very soft. It is a great gift for all ages and almost the very best friend.

The best comfort toy for little ones.
I recently purchased Darby for my first grandchild's 1st Christmas. He would never hug us so we taught him how to hug and love Darby - now we get smothered with hugs!! He sleeps with his Darby and has a big smile for him each morning. I couldn't wait for Christmas to give it to him. I brought the box home and left just his nose poking out! It was wonderful to see my little grandson's eyes light up and watch him tentatively touch Darby's big head. He immediately pulled him out of the box and laid down on him. Darby is so soft and cuddly that he is considered the best of comfort toys for little ones. It was well worth the cost. Thank you Animal Alley!

Can't wait to give it to my Grandson
Wow!!!! I received Darby within three days. Fast shipping, thank you Amazon and Toys R Us. Darby is soooo cute, I opened the box and out came a very huge dog. I can't wait to give it to my Grandson. Darby is so big, soft and cuddly. I hated to put him back in the box. I don't know if we can keep him in there until Christmas. My older kids think Darby is adorable and irresistable that they want my grandson to have it right now. I know it a little expensive for a stuffed animal but it is well worth the money. Darby requires no batteries, won't break and no pieces to loose which is a big plus to me. I am sure my grandson will enjoy him for years to come. I recommend Darby to anyone who wants to have fun, love and hug a big dog. He is so tempting and I soo am glad we got him for our grandson.

cuddly,soft,floppy,comfortable,cute fun
My mother got this dog for my son last Christmas when he was one year old and everytime we watch tv at her house, we drag this dog out. When I say we, I mean the entire family - not just my son. It's so soft and squishable that you can smoosh it under you to get just the right amount of height for on-the-floor tv viewing. And his fur feels wonderful for taking naps. I myself have fallen asleep on him numerous times. My son loves to get on top of him and pretend that he's taking a ride somewhere - he just pulls the ears like they're reins. He also loves to drag it around and jump on it sometimes. In a year, it's taken quite a bit of abuse and hasn't needed a repair stitch yet. The great thing about buying this dog is that it's a toy that I know he'll never outgrow. Even when he's a teenager, I'm sure he and his friends will want to use this comfortable dog as a pillow for watching television. The only problem with this dog is of course, storage - this puppy is BIG! At my mother's house, he generally lays on the guest bed until we come over. And sure, he's a little pricey, but he is a very well-put-together and versatile toy, which in my opinion makes it worth the money.

Dog or an Elephant

Editorial Review

A Toys "R" Us exclusive, this jumbo-sized Darny makes a soft, sweet companion for pet and plush lovers of any age. Big floppy ears, deep dark eyes, large paws, and a cute tail are all covered in the softest pink and beige fur imaginable. Darny's cuddle quotient goes up even higher, given that she is slightly understuffed for extra "squeezability" when humans need something to soft hug. This Darny is quite possibly the largest dog around. ... Read more

All ages
I bought this for my girlfriends 21st birthday, and she loves it. It's almost as big as she is, and it takes up most of her dorm room bed, but she's happy, so i'm happy.

Happy Dad
I bought this for my daughter on her 4th birthday and she love's it, she try's to carry it around with her but it's just too big for her to carry, she look's so cute when she does carry it around, I want to get my wife one soon, she's loves stuffed animal

A Great Gift
My older cousin bought this for her toddler-aged daughter for Christmas and she LOVED it to death!! All day she was dragging it around the house (or at least doing her best) or climbing all over it. It is very durable and great for younger kids who can occasionally "throw" their toys at walls and people, because it is too big for young children to easily pick up. It would be a great gift for girls of any age, even my teenaged cousin thought it was sooo cute!!

For kids of all ages
Got this as a last resort for my 2 1/2 year old neice for Christmas -- she adores it as did her brothers and sisters ages 6 - 12. Just for smiles alone, this is a winner. And, I have to admit snuggling with it a bit myself before the wrapping!

Sweet
I got this for Christmas, only it was brown instead of pink. My parents are always asking if the can lay on it. It's extremely soft and it's so comfy! I lay on it whenever I'm playing video games. Interesting, isn't it (sarcasm). Oh, and before I got it I thought the paws were attached, and just to let you know they're not. I reccomend this a lot!!!!!!!!! ... Read more

Well I'm 11 and I bought this toy. I love it and im not a baby. All of my friends love stuffed animals. I think if you sold big stuffed spongebobs they would go fast. I think the prices are rather high on your stuffed animals though.

Soft & Cuddly!!
I received the puppy as a gift from my boyfriend...it is the perfect size to sleep and cuddle with! It has the sweetest face and the softest fur..!

great toy
My friend loved it,and it's really soft. I just love to touch it.

THE SWEETEST DOG
ITS NICE AND CUDDLY, TOO BAD I SENT IT AS A GIFT!!

Editorial Review

This plush brown mutt sits in the corner of a child's room and offers a cozy lap for toddlers to sit in and read, play with small toys, or just cuddle up. But, in addition to being a stuffed animal and a chair, Darby also provides kids with a place to sleep. Detach the Velcro fasteners at Darby's feet and a sleeping bag rolls out from inside his body. The bag attaches to the loops below Darby's belly and unzips to offer an inviting place for kids to nap outside of their crib, watch TV, or have a camp-out indoors. Darby will quickly become every child's favorite furry friend. --Cristina Vaamonde ... Read more

Editorial Review

Yorkshire terriers, or "Yorkies," as they are commonly known, are one of the more popular breeds in the world for people looking for a loyal and friendly house pet. This little charmer, a Toys "R" Us Exclusive from Animal Alley, captures the pleasant charm of the Yorkie quite nicely. He lies on his stomach, looking slightly upward with his realistic dark eyes. Longer white hairs offset his black coat and the hair on his face is gathered up above his eyes where it's tied off with a fetching little bow. This Yorkie is the perfect size to tuck under an arm as one falls asleep. --John Moe ... Read more

cool
I gave one 2 my b-friend 4 0ur 2 years of dating anneversary. He sleeps with it every night!!!!!! and surprize surprize1 He gave me one of those silly little Animal Alley Yorkshire Terriers 2! Is that not a dorable. I sleep with it every night!!!!!!

Lifesize Yorkie Playmate
I bought this doll as a companion for my own Yorkshire Terrier, Buffy, when she was a puppy. Buffy has LOVED this little doll, she still sleeps with it and carries it with her. Four months later the doll has not lost anything but it's bow. I can wash it when it gets dirty and yes, the hair needs brushing occasionally but anyone who ever had a puppy knows how hard it is to find toys that last through teething. I recommend it for children and dogs alike.

Cute Little Puppy
I love this yorkshire terrier. I want him for Christmas. I have always wanted a real dog like this.

Cute as a button
This toy is so close to the real thing. I have a Yorkie (Jack) and this toy puppy could be his cousin. The makers did a great job with this one. The one I bought is a present but I know it's going to be tough giving him away. It's love at first sight.

Great!

Best Present We Got!
When my daughter turned 1 this year we got this as a gift. At first when I saw this large elephant enter the house I was like "oh my dear" but she LOVES it! It's soft and durable. She can sit and watch tv or read a book in it. Now she has her own chair. There is an indentation for child's behind so she won't fall out of it. When she does lean forward to get down she learns to put her hands down and it's only a short drop to the fall (nothing dangerous) This is going to be my standard gift for a 1-4 year old from now on. It's a great price and it looks like it cost a fortune. All the parents, kids and grandparents wanted it! ... Read more

Huge bear gets a huge response!!
Our 2 yr old received this huge bear for a birthday party present. Everyone's jaws dropped when he entered the room. She loved to climb and hug the bear! Its good quality plush; you can't pull the fibers like many cheaper animals.

softest bunny around
My five year old loves this bunny. It is so soft and cuddly,

my son's best friend
This cuddly bunny quickly became my sons sleeping buddy and best friend.His floppy disposition allows him lots of flexibility and cuddling qualities.My son treats him like a best friend to care for and put to bed, cover up, feed and rock, not to mention drag along where ever he goes.He's loved the first one to pieces and a stuffed animal can only take so much. I am ordering a new one so that our original "Marshmallow bunny" can go on a shelf as a keepsake.The new one will be Marshmallow's visiting cousin, "Fluff".

20 washings later and still intact
I got grey rabbit for my daughter 2 and a half years ago and she is never without it.She is 4 now and still sleeps with "Floppy" and carries him everywhere.I have washed him in the machine many, many times and he is still has never lost any stuffing.He is getting more floppy everyday but is still adorable and holds the same appeal for her.A greatly designed stuffed animal and a real treasure.

BUNNY LOVES A MUST
My daughter got htis for Easter this yr loves it so much damp cloth to wipe off any messes. I think it's her favorite bunny ever!

Darby dog rocks
this is a great toy because your child will learn the respontsability of taking care of a dog

Gotta love Darby
My 2 year old got this for Christmas, as soon as he saw Darby under the tree, he wasn't interested in much else. He loves to have Darby sleep in his room next to him. Plus Darby's big enough to ride like a pony. And best of all, I don't have to feed, walk or clean up after him. This is the best dog ever!!!

5 stars names it all
A very soft fun toy. Fun to play with. every kid should have on at the very least 5. everyone loves them. Christmas darby dogs wuould be cool or you could make bigger ones because kids love that but you shold never put the price of a darby dog higher than [amount]. ...

Just so Lovable
My 8 year old daughter instantly fell in love with this cuddly dog. What a great stuffed animal.

Great Item!
Love this item so much we took it to [a] portriat studio to take a professional photo of my child with Darby. My child adores this dog. The best present!!! Get one! You love Darby. ... Read more

Not for infants
My mother bought this toy for my son when he was about 6 months old. He never took to it. It had been sitting in the bottom of his toy chest for 6 months. We took it out about a month ago and he seems to love it now. He drags it around and presses the ear to hear the messages on his own. He laughs when it speaks. It's good for a few minutes of entertainment here and there. I think a child has to be at least 10 or 11 months old to appreciate it.

My views on Geoffrey the Giraffe
Hi, my name is Brittany and I am 16 years old.I recently recieved an Geoffrey the Giraffe for Christmas and it is my favorite stuffed animal.I sleep with it at night and I constantly listen to the sayings.My favorite is the "I don*t want to grow up, I*m a Toys-R-Us Kidd.." it is truly my favorite thing to sing. One of my older friends who is 19,he enjoys it to so I would say that this toy is for more than 10 years of age.

A must for Geoffrey Lovers and those with the name Geoffrey
It is a fun toy with great quality. The sound is clear and you can tell who it is. I don't know how educational it would be to one with little to no education(those in elementary school and below) but it's definitly not educational to those above that. Funny, yes very, with the quick catchy phrases that will leave you rolling on the floor laughing for hours. It is worth the buy and even more worth it if you get it free when you purchase other stuffed animals.

My favorite Christmas toy
This was my favorite Christmas toy that I got. He says lots of different phrases. I also think he's adorable and he's fun to play with. So buy it for your little one.

A Must Have For Geoffrey Lovers!
Upon first glance, there is nothing that sets this stuffed giraffe apart other than his embroidered bandana. However, when you squeeze his right ear, Geoffrey comes to life with several hilarious catch phrases! The sound technology is well done with Geoffery's voice coming in loud, clear and easily recognizable.

All in all, Geoffery says about 10 different things one of which includes him singing the Toys R Us theme song. His sound bites are all great and will leave you wanting more. Perhaps next year's version will say even more.

Considering the his current popularity in commercials, I'm surprised we haven't had a Talking Geoffrey plush sooner. This one is easy to recommend and the fact that you can get it free with the purchase of $30 worth of other stuffed animals makes it even better. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Despite his rather pugilistic moniker, this little boxer is anything but combative. In fact, his sad expression indicates that he's really a lover and not a fighter. He's a Toys "R" Us Exclusive from Animal Alley and features a tan coat, a white belly and paws, and a tan-and-black face. He is set in a standing position, but since he's built to be soft he probably can't stand on his own. Probably best to snuggle him in with other stuffed toys or simply put him in a nice comfortable bed overnight. --John Moe ... Read more

Just like a real Boxer!
This Boxer is exactly like a real dog. I am crazy for Boxers because they have such adorable expressions, and this one has the most adorable face ever! I've played with Cleopatra a lot, and she still looks new. It's the real thing, but without the trouble of feeding, walking, going to the vet, and picking up poop. Parents, if your child has a birthday coming up, and really wants a dog, this Animal Alley Boxer would be a good choice because it is so realistic. This is not just any dog, this dog is special. I think Boxers are a great breed, and I was lucky that Animal Alley made this dog.

111/2" Boxer
I think that this 11 1/2" Boxer is magnificent. It is very soft and is great to sleep with.

adorble and cute puppy
This puppy is so cute! I just love it! I play with him! I have had him for more than a year and he is still very cute and he has held up for a long time, even after being thrown up in a tree and put on a moving ceiling fan by my brothers and his friend! I love him, his name is LJ, or Little Junior, I have a bigger version of LJ named Junior, who I also love! I have two monkeys from animal alley too, their names are Apples/Cream Cheese and Bannanas/Nanners (they have two names :P) !

Animal Alley's All The Way!
I saved up $15.00 and my mom took me to Toys R Us the next weekened. Was I was planning on buying was a Micropet, but as I passed the aisles I saw this Animal Alley Boxer, and it was love at first site! As soon as I picked him up, and felt his soft, chocolately colored fur between my fingers, and gave him a squishy hug, I knew I would end up leaving with little Cocoa Puff, as my four year old sister named him for me. Even though he's not tiny and electronic and doesn't bark or anything, he's still great. He's more to cuddle with instead of play with. I wouldn't say he's exactly educational, but he can sure make up for a real puppy! I spilled peach juice all over him by accident, and we decided to try and put Cocoa Puff in the washing machine - and he came out looking practically the same as he had before, except stain free! His fur is matted and pressed together after seven months of enjoying him so much, but I love him more than ever. I'm fourteen years old, and I'm not some immature child at heart; I have a boyfriend, friends, and a social life.. but I can't resist this puppy's sad little face! We came back to Toys R Us about a month later, and my little sister came home with an Animal Alley Pug, equaly as cute. She named him Smooshy, because his face is smooshed in, just like a real Pug! I can't wait to pick up Jessie the Golden Retriever the next time I save up.. they're completely worth it!

Wonderful toy!
This toy dog was purchased 3 years ago for my daughter's birthday, she was quite into dogs at the time. She played with it quite a lot, it's been through the wash several times (gentle cycle, line dried, regular detergent) and shows extremely little wear. We recently aquired a real dog, and he was convinced this toy was a real dog as well! He growled at the toy, and finally attacked it. It held up! Didn't even pop a seam when my live dog adopted the toy dog as his latest chew and tug-a-war toy. I'm amazed at the durability of this toy, especially as it is a very inexpensive stuffed animal ... ... Read more

Reta Rocks!
My daughter picked this toy out for her 8th birthday and named it Reta. Since then, she bought another one so Reta would have a "husband" and named him Ater. She loves this toy. Buy it. It's worth the money.

The Best $10 I Ever Spent!!!
My husband bought this dog for my son before he was born, from the minute my son laid eyes on "Jessica" he was in awe. She is so soft and cuddley, my son won't go anywhere without her. She is a perfect size for a toddler to carry around and she washes wonderfully!! (She is in my washmachine at least once a week) Thank you Animal Alley for making such a great stuffed animal!!!

This is the best Stuffed animal in the Animal Alley
With this Stuffed animal, it seems like you dont need a real pet, because its so soft and cute that you can even sleep with it!!!
I have two, one big one and one small one, and even though im already a big girl I still sleep with them both.Not only that; but you can play with it and do almost everything you can do with a real pet!

Jessica the Lab.
I love Jessica the Lab. She looks nice on my bed.

The best stuffed dogs I've ever owned
When I bought my first Animal Alley lab, I knew I'd end up with more. I now own five, one Rottweiler who lives beside my pillow, this ''17 lab, Sydney, and her three lab puppies, Maddie, Clhoe, and Riley. My room is filled with families of stuffed dogs, but these ones really stand out. Sydney is a big, floppy, beautiful cuddle magnet who couldn't be more like a real dog, and her puppies are adorable, and so much fun to play with. Though I perfer yellow labs, I think the stuffed black ones look more realistic. The dogs are durable, but some of the strings can come loose and cause the seams to rip open. This happened on little Maddie's belly, but is easy to sew shut. But overall, they are just about the most perfect stuffed dogs imaginable.
Their perfect if you can't have a real dog, which I couldn't untill one month ago when I found out I was getting a real Lab puppy. Even when she gets here, these dogs will still be special. A real Lab doesn't usauly get to sleep in the bed.

The Cutest Cuddliest Puppy Ever
This Black Lab puppy is so cute and cuddly! :-) It's very realistic looking, and great for any age. Its fur is so smooth and soft and is a cozy addition to any household whether you have kids or not. Plus the fact that this dog is made so well that if you have children, it's a great dog to cuddle with and take anywhere, and the stitching and fabric is still in great condition even after hours of hugging or lugging from place to place. Overall a great soft cuddly friend for anyone! :-)

Better than the real thing
This is a wonderful dog. I think every kid should have one. This is so much fun, and it is extremely durable. It is educational, too. You can practice dog ownership on it. Although it is named Likerish, I call mine Robert. I gave a stuffed animal just like mine to one of my friends and she loved it. If you can't have a real Lab, this Animal Alley Lickerish is the next best thing. I recently got a smaller version of this dog, I say a daughter. I call her Elizabeth. I don't think that it is a waste, or that it's just another stuffed animal. I do think that it's just another Animal Alley dog, but "just another Animal Alley dog" isn't a bad thing. Animal Alleys are special. One more thing. Isn't the name supposed to be spelled Licorice?

So Cute
I was so happy when I pulled this out of the box to wrap it for my 7 year old daughter. What a cute stuffy! So real looking! Had a hard time wrapping it back up and wanted to keep it for myself! PS my 9 month old daughter who helped me wrap it loved it too!

A wonderful true to life Black Labrador to love
I got Lickerish at the same time I ordered the brown labrador from Amazon. I could not resist both of them. Up until last July, I had a black and "brown" labrador, but now only have the "brown" labrador. I miss Patsy, my black labrador, and find anything I can on black labs to honor her life and her memory. Even though Patsy was 14, it was still very difficult to let her go. I still cry when I think of her, but holding this dog helps me get by. I put the dog on a chair and once, when walking by quickly, thought it was Patsy on the chair and did a double take. The toy is very lifelike. ... Read more

This stuffed rabbit is so addoribal and fun i love him . I love cuddling with him hauuing him and just playing him .it is veyyr duribal i would recomend this to anny one who loves rabbits , its so real looking !

We love Brown Rabbie
Brown Rabbie came to our house about 2years ago for a friend of our daughter who was 2 at the time. Well... Brown Rabbie was sitting on the desk and Joycee had Grey Rabbie already.Joycee asked Daddy for Brown Rabbie and they have been unseperatable ever since.We only left Rabbie once at an unknown place to Rabbie on our way to Shasta Lake at a stop that we got an ice cream.Well.. Joycee is 4 now and starting preschool Monday. I had gone to Toys R Us and the store did not have him anymore, I found him online and decided to buy an extra just in case Rabbie gets lots again and to give one to our day care provider as a gift to remind her of Joycee.This Rabbie has been through alot, I have never had to give him surgery, he has survived the washing machine half dozen times, and still goes to Lake Shasta every July with us.And the friend of Joycee well, we got him a grey Rabbie and now he is living in Canada.
SO THANKFUL THE WEBSITE STILL HAS HIM SO I CAN BUY A BROTHER AND A COUSIN. THANKYOU ANIMAL ALLEY and TOYSRUS.COM

Finally!A decent looking stuffed rabbit!
A feel weird that I am fascinated with this stuffed rabbit at the age of 17.I'm a big fan of rabbits of all kinds, even fake ones.

I've seen way too many cartoonish looking rabbits about, so when I saw this realistic looking one I was amazed.I picked it up off the shelf an it even felt realistic!...and so soft.Goodness, once you feel these things, you can't help but want to keep it.

I've had mine for about 5 months now, so it's kind of worn out from heavy usage.The strings that partially held its ears to its head snapped from pulling on the ears to hard.But in a way, that actually made the stuffed rabbit better because now the ears aren't plastered to the side of its head, but instead can move around more freely.In fact, I recommend pulling on the ears to break the string so you can make it an even more realistic rabbit!

So far I only have the brown one, but definitely intend to get the grey one too because these things are just great to play with.

It's so life like!!!!!!!!!!
When I went inside of TOYSRUS I wanted to get a few toys, dolls etc. Right before we had to leave Ilooked around Animal Alley and saw those bunnies so I ran over to my mom and got it. If you know how a bunny feels thats how it feels like but it isn't real fur! I can't stop adoring it! So go get it and have fun it would be really good for people who adore lop eared or all kinds of bunnies, rabbits. ... Read more
