Are YOU searching for a lost toy?

Check Our Own Plush Animals & Soft Dolls CATALOG, or CONTACT US

Maybe we've already FOUND one just like one you need. See what people are SEARCHING for. If you have one of these toys, or know where they can get one, please help these families out!

I read each request, do the initial search, request additional information and photos, and edit most of the photos. Often I do find the lovie, so those requests never show up on this blog. I answer each comment or email that comes in about a posted request, act as a go-between to link people who can help with those who need help, and add new requests as soon as I can. Due to health problems I got way behind posting requests, so now I am trying to stay current with requests and gradually catch up on the older requests.

I can't adequately thank all of you who search for all these lovies I do post about. I get the ball rolling, but YOU are the ones who make this site work!!

Searching - NAPPER - TALKING WHIMPERING DOG I'm Lonely


Target white dog blue on top half of is faceTarget white dog blue on top half of is face
I'm looking for a 1980's Stuffed dog that says phrases like, "I'm lonely," and whimpers. My aunt had one when I was about 3, and ever since she died, I've been trying to find something to remind me of the fun we had.
One of our wonderful readers had just sold this very puppy dog a week before I got this post up!

Now we know his name is Napper, but some people call him Snapper, and he's made by Mattel. I have added the photos, so maybe someone will be able to help Amy find one.

If you can help Amy find this vintage talking dog, please Contact Us, including #121107-4 in the subject, or Comment Here.

Hello,

I just finished reading your letter, and was very touched. I have a dog (napper) whom I do call snapper. I have had him since I was a baby. The dog means a lot to me as my mother gave him to me. I wish you luck in your search, and wish I could help you. My dog too has a lot of meaning. He is very worn with a chewed nose, and his voice box had to be taken out by my brother when I was little, but with all that, it's amazing how much memories a plush toy can hold. Best of luck.

I too owned a Napper dog when I was a little girl. His recording said things like, "*Yawn* I'm sleepy!", "My Name is Napper!", and my personal favorite, "Rub rub rrrrub my tummy!" I found one on ebay many moons ago, but the ending bid of over $100 was too much for me. Just a note to let your reader know that this toy was loved by many and I too wish them godspeed in their search!

I've seen lots of requests over the Internet for one of the many variations of coloring that this much loved plush dog comes in. So I am not surprised that once the bidding has started on one, that it would continue for some time.

People really have to get realistic about such toys, that are in high demand after many years. If you want to get one, you are going to pay a high price for it. Found it cheaper somewhere? Pure, dumb, luck!
