What better way to commemorate your favorite pooch than with a custom stuffed dog from Shelter Pups?
For $125 the company uses pictures you send of your beloved pooch and attempts to replicate their appearance in stuffed animal form. Every quirk or distinct characteristic that your dog has will be sure to be represented in the toy. The clever idea is a great way for dog owners to either pay homage to their critters or is a great gift for young children to have something they can cuddle and throw around as much as they want. The best part is that all proceeds made from its sales will be going towards animal rescue shelters!
For cat owners interested in this service, do not fret because the company will begin making cat versions of these custom stuffed dogs in 2013.
