Lifesize Australian Shepherd Plush

It's finally finished! I've actually still got work in progress photos scheduled to post until next week on my tumblr ( whittykittyplushies.tumblr.com… ) if you want to watch it come together. But I just couldn't wait to post the finished result.

Also, if you'd like to see more photos of this pup, check the link >

He measures a total of 39 inches, from paw tip to paw tip. Created mostly from a variety of high quality faux furs, and a few different faux leathers.

All paw pads are are individually sewn on and stuffed, for a realistic squishy look and feel. Includes dew toes. Every toe has a little stuffed claw.

The nose is also a sewn and stuffed plush piece, as is every single tooth. The hardest part about this pattern was creating actual lips that can be pulled back to reveal the top teeth, so that the top row of teeth can remain hidden normally for a friendly look.

Paws and belly are lightly filled with plastic pellets to add weight, and otherwise this plush is somewhat lightly stuffed to provide lots of flop and cuddle.

Overall, very pleased with this pattern! I've kept every piece so it can be customized for future commissions.
