Mommy's Favorite Things: This Place is a Zoo Review & Giveaway & DISCOUNT CODE *CLOSED*

This Place is a Zoo Review & Giveaway & DISCOUNT CODE *CLOSED*



Avery loves Stuffed Animals. They are her favorite toy. She has a HUGE toy chest handmade by grandpa and it's filled with stuffed animals. 
I'm afraid to count them because I know it would just blow me away. 

But they are her favorite so we're always buying more. When I found This Place is a Zoo I knew I had to contact them RIGHT AWAY!! Their are some amazing stuffed animals there and I knew we had to have at least one of them!

I was sent a different kind of stuffed animal for this review. I was sent the Breathing Pug. It really breathes!!

He came with an adorable bed, a brush, a cute collar with tag and a Birth Certificate!! 

How adorable! Avery of course named him Boog (after our old Pug) and she's just in heaven with him. He breathes with the help of batteries, Jon thought they'd last just a couple days. However, here we are 3 weeks later and he's still breathing away!

It sounds realistic. The motor that makes him breathe sounds like a snoring dog. It's adorable. She loves this pug and I do too. It looks realistic. Stick this little guy in the corner in his bed and invite some people over, guarantee you fool at least one of them!!

The quality is great, he's soft and even feels real. The bed is super soft and has held up quite well.

There are many animals to choose from on This Place is a Zoo. And we had a difficult time picking. 
I sent him a whole list and let him decide what to send us. Here are the others that were on my list. 
Elephants are her favorite animal, and she also loves tigers, so those were our other 2 choices. We're very happy with the pug though!!

Price: The Breathing Pug is $32.50. 30" Elephant is $50, 15" Standing tiger is $50. Reasonable prices I think. The tiger is a little pricey, but I think the Elephant and Pug are reasonably priced!!

Overall: ***** Love looking at all the animals he has!
HEATHERANDAVERY will give you 10% off until April 30th
