Cuddle up with the perfect puppy. Peppi, a dog plush toy from Steiff, has an unmistakably perky and pleasant demeanor, making Peppi a great choice for imaginary play. Plus, he's made with cuddly fur and soft stuffing that kids love to hug tightly. Whether it's playtime or bedtime, this sweet pooch is sure to be their constant companion.
Steiff artists have designed Peppi to become a treasured best friend that holds up beautifully over the years, after this plush toy has transitioned from a playtime favorite to a longtime companion. The quality materials, expert craftsmanship and proven safety standards make this dog an ideal choice for any child. At 11 inches in size, he's easy to bring along on adventures. The machine-washable design also makes him easy to freshen up when needed. Note the famous “Button in Ear” tag trademark, which serves as a symbol of the company that invented soft toys more than a hundred years ago.
In 1904 Franz Steiff, Margarete’s nephew was looking for a way to protect Steiff products from imitation. His great idea later became the epitome of quality and handiwork: a metal button in the ear as a protection label. Initially engraved with an elephant motive, the metal button soon wore the trademark and therefore became inseparable with the brand.
"Steiff - Button in Ear" is a world wide renowned and unique trademark, which still stands for quality, richness of ideas and entrepreneurial spirit.
Please note, the button in ear is NOT removable.
