Product description
Plush toy dog with star print
Reasons the product is recalled
The seams are not strong enough to prevent infants from gaining access to the polyester fill, as the toy does not meet the requirements of clause 5.24.6.2 Tension test for seams in soft-filled (stuffed) toys of the mandatory standard for toys for children up to and including 36 months of age (Australian Standard AS/NZS ISO 8124.1:2003, as amended by the regulation).
The hazards to consumers
If infants gain access to the polyester fill inside the toy, they may attempt to ingest it and choke.
What consumers should do
Consumers should take the toy away from children immediately and return it to the nearest Best and Less store for a full refund.
