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
My buddy liked this a lot. Only complaint would be he is [so] huge and occupies lot of space. ... Read more

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

Ages
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.

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..!

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

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

Small babies love cuddly toys, and they love huge cuddly toysall the more. A caterpillar may not sound like the right creature tochoose for an infant, but, quite aside from its cute expression, thislittle leaf-eater is fully 10 inches wide and only a few inches short of6 feet long. It has a yellow head with a pink nose, stiff red antennae,and black-and-white plastic eyes. The rest of the body is pure"squish"--there are five sections in orange, red, purple, blue, and green(with a little turned-up tail at the end). Each of the four midsections has adifferent word on the side and an associated sound effect within:"tinkle," "crinkle," "rattle," and "squeak." This caterpillar is made ofpolyester and has a washable surface. Make sure you give it lots ofleaves to eat. --Richard Farr ... Read more

Gets better as they get older
My daughter received this as a present when she was born. As an infant, it was used mostly as decoration and as a play area barrier for her before she could crawl over it. Now that she is 4, she loves "riding" on it, making it make noises, and wrapping herself up in it. It sits on the floor of her room, and it looks great. My two year old loves it too. He talks about its colors and loves climbing all over it. My children have a lot of toys and this one guarantees the giggles.

It's good to keep him closed up@
The Catapillar is cute, and goes cute in his room which is bug themed. But it's size in impratical for him to play with at such a young age. But, it's cool anyway.

The Little one is super fun
My son received one of the little ones and he loved the thing so much that I had to replace it twice. The crinkles are exciting for baby and when they learn how to make it squeek it is so fun. I would expect this huge one to be fun for the entire family or for families with several children.

Son's favorite toy
My husband fell in love with this toy when he saw it in the store and just had to have it for our son. When my son was in the early stages of learning to sit on his own, we'd use it for support. I could wrap it around him, and he felt very secure.

Now my son is 10 months old, and he loves to crawl all over it. It was a lot of money but well worth 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.

ps - I rated educational as 4. Child can name body parts and learn size relations to other toys. ... Read more

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

Tiger Chair
We bought the Tiger Chair for our 15 month old son. The chair is very soft and cute, but the seat part of the chair does not go back far enough. When my son gets in the chair and sits down the tiger's head gets in the way making it uncomfortable for him to sit there. If the seat was bigger I think that this wouldn't be a problem. My son does like the Tiger and thinks it is very soft and likes to climb on it. I am just disappointed that he can't sit down and be comfortably in his new chair. ... Read more
