Childhood TV Show Star Now Popular Dog Toy
Move over, designer handbags and limited-edition sneakers—there’s a new must-have collectible in town, and it’s got four legs and a squeaker.
Meet Lamb Chop, the plush, floppy-eared icon that has clawed its way back into the spotlight. No, not as a nostalgic nod to Shari Lewis’ legendary puppet, but as the most sought-after dog toy in North America.
This unassuming, red-hooved, googly-lashed sheep has become the hottest thing in the dog world since peanut butter Kongs.
Pet parents everywhere are scrambling to get their hands on these fuzzy treasures before they sell out, with some dedicated collectors hoarding dozens—heck, even hundreds—for their canine companions.
Just ask Mango, the Manhattanite Cavapoochon who has an entire Lamb Chop wardrobe (yes, including a Halloween costume of his beloved plush). And then there’s Teddy, a golden retriever whose owner estimates he’s bought 1,000 Lamb Chops to keep up with the sheer destruction rate of his pup’s all-time favourite toy.
Why the obsession? Experts have theories. Some say it’s the bone-like shape, others think it’s the ultra-soft texture, and a few believe it’s sheer nostalgia—dog parents passing down their childhood love of Lamb Chop to their furry kids.
Whatever the reason, this woolly wonder isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. Shelves are empty, online stores are wiped clean, and some dog owners are even resorting to raffles to snag a fresh batch.
And with Multipet expanding the brand into themed bowls, beds, and accessories, we might just be witnessing the birth of the first-ever dog toy empire.
