Description

Sadie is an exquisitely soft and realistic handcrafted plush red dachshund dog toy in a standing position.

Dachshunds were bred 300 years ago in Germany to hunt badgers. The name Dachshund literally means “badger” (dachs) and “dog” (hund). They are also called Weiner or Sausage Dogs and the actual hot dog was named after them.

The first Olympic Mascot was a Dachshund.

Sadie measures 22cm/8.7″ in height 37cm/14.6″ in length and 13cm/5.1″ in width.

The stuffing for Sadie was made using 2 recycled plastic bottles from regenerated ocean waste.
