The Teddy Bear Shelter

What are you plans for the new year?  We plan to continue to do our best to find new homes for every teddy that enters the shelter. We also look forward to reuniting lost teddies or childhood lovies with their owners. If you know of anyone searching for a lost teddy or childhood plush toy, send them our way. We would love to help find a replacement.

This lucky fellow is on his way to a new home for the new year.

Did you get your 2011 Walmart Snowflake teddy this year before they sold out? 

Not sure of the year, because the 80's are not dated. It has a little snowflake on the nose that is sort of wearing off but you can see it well enough to know that it is a snowflake.
