FolkmanisSheepdog Hand Puppet

Q: Where is the hole to put your hand? I'm looking for a puppet I can play with a clawed kitten with so would like most of my forearm to be protected.

I ordered this as gift and have never seen it. However I have several of their puppets. With large ones like this, there is more than one opening, one in the neck area for working the head and mouth and one near the middle for working the paws hands. You might try contacting the Folkmanis Company for a definite answer. The quality of their puppets is excellent.

Q: My child loves to brush her dolls hair. Can she do likewise with the fur on this adorable?

It is a fury puppet. I guess you could brush with a small brush. His fur is about 2” long. So probably cannot do a lot of styling.

Q: Is it washable ( machine) ?

My sheepdog is packed away, yet I believe they are only to be "surface wiped" according to the tag. i can't imagine the beautiful fake fur standing up to a washer.

Q: is this prime purchase a free return item?

I do not know, I kept the puppet because it is cute

the best yet

Folkmanis are the very best puppets, so easy to manipulate. I have bought several, first for my grandchildren and now for my Golden Retriever. She inherited the puppets we already had at home and they were a great success, so we bought the sheepdog specially for her. She loves him. Her eyes light up when she sees her Oscar and he is the one she always chooses when she wants to tempt us to play. We're looking for another Folkmanis puppet to buy for her for Christmas.Three years on....Oscar is now an established member of our family. He's got a twin brother, also called Oscar, a stand-in for when the original needs a bath. When an Oscar smells a bit 'doggy' I put him in a pillowcase (with press-studs) and he goes in the washing machine- 30 degrees, delicate wash. They each get washed at least five times a year and look as good as new - almost, despite all the tugging and shaking and mouthing they get. Mollie treats Oscar like a puppy but he doesn't need feeding or trips to the vet - perfect!

Cuddly but moulting excessively.

The puppet is very soft and cuddly but the features are completely obscured by the fur,unlike the picture. Also,it is shedding fur abundantly,which is not too good for a young child (or any clothes or furnishings with which it comes into contact ). There are no washing instructions on the puppet or included in the order.Having said that, my 5 year old granddaughter loved it,as did her 1 year old sister. I am,however,concerned about them choking on the fur!

Life-like, cute puppet

A lovely, cuddly, life-like puppet.As others have found, I had to trim some of the fur around the eyes. But that was a fairly minor thing.
